The Chaplaincy department is committed to making the University a center of expression of Christian faith, piety and service. We do this by cultivating a spiritually formative environment for Kabarak University Community through Christian practices that involve us in God’s activity in the world. We uphold activities that draw people near to God such as worship, Bible study, prayer, mid-week fellowships, mission outreach and discipleship. Below is a highlight of the main programs:
