Spiritual Communities

Students from many religious and non-religious traditions including Atheist, Agnostic, Baha'i, Buddhist, Christian (Orthodox, Protestant, Roman Catholic), Hindu, Humanist, Jain, Jewish, Latter Day Saints, Muslim, Native African, Native American, Pagan, Secular, Sikh, Unitarian Universalist, Zoroastrian and others are encouraged to find a home and community within the Office of Religious and Spiritual Life.

Wellesley students may choose to participate in one of the various student-led religious organizations and any of the programs hosted by ORSL on a weekly basis (see the Weekly Programs below). Students are encouraged to contact the Dean of Religious and Spiritual Life to connect to a particular community or create a new campus organization to nurture their spiritual development while on campus. 

The college chaplains are a confidential resource for students, faculty, and staff, by offering individual pastoral counseling sessions in which spiritual curiosity and life issues are explored through nonjudgmental conversation. The Office of Religious & Spiritual Life encourages the celebration of religious identity in our campus community and supports student wellness through engagement with spirituality.
