Daybreak
Please join us for Christian Fellowship sponsored Daybreak on Wednesday nights at 9 p.m. in Smith Chapel. This student planned and led service includes contemporary music, scripture, prayers, and a message geared toward student life.
Praise Band
The Christian Fellowship Praise Band is comprised of Simpson Students who provide music for campus worship on Wednesday nights. It welcomes vocal and instrumental musicians who feel called to serve God through musical praise.
Taize
"On a hill in southern France, you'll find a community of brothers that has opened its door to the world as an act of hospitality. Young people from around the world flock to Taize to be near the brothers, to pray, to be silent, to be simple, to be faithful. But what is it about this place that draws the youth of the world? Surely there are plenty of other more interesting vacation spots.
Time in Taize is more like a melodic, holy rhythm than the frenzied pace of everyday life. Three times a day visitors are called to prayer by the chiming of bells. The prayers are not like ordinary prayer meetings of worship services. Instead of coming together to talk to God, the community gathers to listen. Instead of talking about the Scripture, the Scripture is read and left to speak for itself in the silence. By singing simple songs of prayer over and over again, the mind calms and the soul opens up; God speaks and the heart hears." -Taken from Worship Feast: 20 Complete Services in the Spirit of Taize
