Please join us in Christ Chapel on聽Sunday, August 23, 2026, at 5pm for 51视频鈥檚 annual Matriculation service, where new students are welcomed and begin their important journey of learning and formation. At the service, incoming students will add their names to the same Matriculation Book that so many alumni have signed, and become a part of the tradition at 51视频 that stretches back for decades.
Also, at the service, 51视频 will award the聽Charles Cook Servant Leadership Award. The Cook Award was created in 2009 by the faculty to honor their colleague and 51视频 alum, the聽Rev. Charlie Cook,聽on the occasion of his retirement from the seminary. Each fall, as another academic year begins, the community pauses to remember this common calling we have and to honor someone who especially embodies the Christian commitment to selfless service on behalf of others.
The service will be live-streamed at the seminary website听补苍诲. Please feel free to forward these links to family or friends who may be interested but cannot attend.
Following the service, please join us for a celebratory reception in Howell Dining Hall.
RSVP form coming soon.
We look forward to celebrating with you.
