Communal Spiritual Formation
Northeastern Seminary seeks not only to integrate personal and spiritual formation components throughout its classes, but is also committed to communal formation together beyond the classroom. Examples of such opportunities include a shared dinner and chapel held on the Rochester campus at the beginning of each semester for all new and returning students, faculty, staff, and administrators. An annual fall retreat is offered in November for all members of the Seminary community as well as others who would like to share a retreat experience with us. During the Advent and Lenten Seasons, the Seminary offers series of online communal reflections for students, alumni, faculty, staff and administrators. Students who live close to campus may take part in Roberts Wesleyan College's day-time chapel program where students, faculty, and administration share together in leadership along with distinguished Staley Lecturers and other Christian leaders; a schedule of these services is posted on the college intranet site at www.roberts.edu/student-
