Campus Ministry

Cal Lutheran gives you the opportunity to openly explore different beliefs and perspectives. We are encouraged to question a lot, even in the religion courses. It's important to our professors that we think critically.

Cal Lutheran is a place for students of all faiths, as well as those without a specific background of faith. As such, the Cal Lutheran Campus Ministries program offers a broad variety of options to support students as they explore issues related to spirituality. You’ll find Lutheran services, Roman Catholic mass, mid-week chapel services, Hillel affiliated programs, and other student-friendly faith-based organizations.

Meet the Campus Pastors

Pastors Scott and Melissa Maxwell-Doherty bring to Cal Lutheran a wealth of experience in worship planning, youth and family ministry, and programming for young adults.
