Bluefish is a team of eighteen students who will serve as campus ministers out of the Chaplain's Office. They are dynamically concerned with the work and worship of God.
In action - through their gifts for ministry - and embodied - as gifts themselves - they seek to facilitate spiritual growth within the PC community.
They live in the residence halls and serve as pastoral resources - providing worship leadership, compassionate support, and stimulating programming throughout the wider community.
Under the direction of interim chaplain, Dr. Al Masters, the "Bluefish" (Chaplain Interns), offer support and encouragement to the religious and spiritual life of the students. This semester their training and learning meetings will include subjects such as, Young Adult Spirituality, "What would Jesus drive" and "Doubt, Imagination and Truth". The Bluefish lead the weekly Chapel prayers and monthly community-wide Worship Service. Interviews for Bluefish for next academic year will take place this spring.
Other opportunities for spiritual growth offered to students include, "Coalesce" bringing together the Chaplain and faculty members to investigate such topics as the poetry of George Herbert and Theology and Ecology, under the heading, "Does God recycle?"
A Taize-style worship Service will begin this semester in the Wyatt Chapel as well as a Knitting for Peace Group.
