SPIRITUAL RESOURCES

For nearly a century, Wayland’s Christian heritage has been celebrated as a source of strength for students, faculty, administrators, and staff. It is as much a part of higher education on our campus as our divisions of academic study, and as such, we proudly offer a vibrant range of opportunities and resources dedicated to spiritual development.
