The Truitt Center for Religious and Spiritual Life introduces it’s spring College Chapel Theme:
A Diversity of Belief and Practice
Thursday 9:50 – 10:20 a.m.
Whitley Auditorium
Imam Khalid Griggs – Associate Chaplain for Muslim Life at Wake Forest University
Music: Ben Pinder ’13, piano
Join us this Thursday in Whitley Auditorium for College Chapel. This semester we will be learning about the religious and nonreligious diversity that is part of our Elon community. We will hear from religious leaders, faculty and students about the different beliefs that shape our university and how students practice and participate in their respective faith traditions.
Thursday Chapel is a time and space to take a break from the busyness of the week and refresh the spirit. It is not a “worship service,” rather a time of reflection offered by a member of the Elon community or guest speaker. Music is provided each week by students and faculty from the Music department. Refreshments will be served following Chapel. All are welcome!
About our speaker:
Khalid Griggs is the imam of the Community Mosque of Winston-Salem and serves as the Associate Chaplain for Muslim Life at Wake Forest University. Imam Griggs offers students an opportunity to learn about Islamic traditions and promotes a broad dialogue among people of different faith traditions in which he encourages a greater awareness of differing beliefs, both of which are critical to enriching the quality of the Wake Forest campus community.
