The Center for Spiritual Life

The Center for Spiritual Life is a place to nourish yourself, challenge yourself, and connect to something bigger as you navigate the world. Whether that is through a religious path or through a broader sense of spirituality, the Center for Spiritual Life is here to support all students in their reflection and growth throughout their time at Emerson College, through religious and spiritual programming, support, and education.

Through one-on-one conversations, retreats, lunches, and meditative gatherings, our team of chaplains and student leaders seek to provide spiritual nourishment to our campus. We work to foster a campus environment where faith traditions and spirituality can be practiced freely and wholly. Come visit us on the 4th floor of 172 Tremont Street! Our Reflection Room (408) overlooking the Boston Common is open for drop-in self-guided meditation and prayer weekdays 9:00 am–12:00 pm and our Private Prayer and Meditation Room (418) is open for drop-in use anytime the building is open.

The Center for Spiritual Life is a place to ask big questions. Who am I? What is my purpose? What does it mean to be alive? What do I value most? How can I be a part of something greater than myself? What does it mean to act ethically? Why is there suffering in the world? And how can I make a difference?

Come to the Center for Spiritual Life to ponder these questions and more, as we learn how to be human together.
