Interfaith Peace Week Schedule 2025
Hendricks Chapel of Syracuse University will offer opportunities for religious and spiritual peacebuilding through Interfaith Peace Week from October 5-10, 2025. All students, faculty, and staff are invited to participate in a series of programs and services that develop relationships by embracing religious and spiritual differences as a bridge of cooperation rather than a barrier of division. Hosted by the Chaplains’ Council of Hendricks Chapel, participants can attend peace vigils, conversation groups, meditations, and workshops that express the chapel’s mission of “leading in service to the common good through religious, spiritual, moral and ethical life.”
