Religious Opportunities
The Colleges of the Fenway provides a wide array of religious and supportive services to students, faculty, and staff of all religious backgrounds. This includes individual campus ministries, personal counseling, interfaith prayer groups, retreats, educational programs, and opportunities to volunteer in local agencies and projects. A critical component of the college experience is having an opportunity for personal reflection, getting involved, and giving something back to one’s community and to society. The campus ministries of the Colleges of the Fenway welcome you into our community, offer our support, and invite you to become involved in those activities of interest.
This information is a compilation of religious organizations and places of worship that are accessible to all College of the Fenway students. The churches, synagogues, and mosques were selected due to their proximity to the Colleges of the Fenway area.
