About
Do you have questions about your spiritual life?
Are you looking for a place where you can come to your own conclusions about your faith and life – not someone else?
Are you interested in meeting with other college students wrestling with the same questions as you?
You are invited!
Our Purpose:
“LECM is an inclusive, supportive, and safe Christian community at Temple University. We seek to continue Christ’s ministry by being socially- engaged, thinking, and missional in the world.”
- LECM Student Leaders
LECM: The Lutheran Episcopal Campus Ministry is a religious group at Temple University. Students meet weekly for fellowship discussion about Christian faith and spirituality. It’s a laid back discussion which attracts students from a variety of religious backgrounds. You don’t have to be Lutheran or Episcopal to come – just bring an open mind and a willingness to think about Christian faith. Did we mention, free pizza is included? Afterwards we close the day with a quiet evening service.
The ministry is student driven. Many students have become close friends through the ministry. Over the course of the semester we do a variety of social events and events on campus. We also take road trips – going on retreats and to local and national conferences designed just for Lutheran and Episcopal college students.
In addition, the chaplain is always available to talk for a variety of pastoral concerns (from stress to faith struggles). E-mail her at renee177@temple.edu with any questions.
Lutheran Episcopal Campus Ministry is a religious group funded by the Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania and the Southeastern Pennsylvania Lutheran Synod and supported by The Church of the Advocate. Rev. Renee McKenzie-Hayward also serves as the Vicar of The Church of the Advocate.
