Corpus was originally founded in 1352 for pursuit of religious understanding, as well as for education and research. All members of the College - Fellows, graduates and undergraduates - are welcome to join in Christian Worship at the Sunday and weekday services in the beautiful Chapel, regardless of denomination or faith.There is a lively Chapel community of Fellows and students made up of people from all over the world, with a full range of activities. These include Bible Study, Choir, Human Rights Group, Prayer, Worship, Ecumenical Services, visits to inner-city areas, a Retreat, and a link with the monastery of Bec in Normandy, all of which open up new perspectives. We observe a range of traditions that are attentive to the scriptures, valuing the sacraments, prayer and Christian experience. There is always a variety of stimulating visiting speakers, and regular discussion groups that provide opportunities to reflect on Christianity and to explore aspects of faith, including other religious traditions. The Chaplain organises many of these activities with students, and offers pastoral care for all members of the College. There is also a Christian Union run by students and a wide spectrum of religious societies within the University for people of all faiths and outlooks. THE COLLEGE CHAPLAIN, James Buxton is readily available to all members and staff of the College at any time, with or without appointment.
