The University of Mary Washington Canterbury Club Episcopal Campus Ministry is a ministry of the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia and Trinity Episcopal Church in Fredericksburg, Virginia.  We are partnering this year with Christ Lutheran Church's Lutheran Campus Ministry to become the Canterbury Episcopal & Lutheran Campus Ministry.

The mission of the Canterbury Club is to offer opportunities for students, faculty, and employees of the University of Mary Washington to rest, study, worship, have fun, serve, and grow in faith.  A big part of the Canterbury Club is the Canterbury House, where most of our activities take place.  The members of the Canterbury Club are mostly Episcopalians/Anglicans, but others come from a variety of denominational and faith backgrounds.  We are male and female, straight and gay, conservative and progressive (and in between).  Some of us are well established in our beliefs, and others are questioning their faith.  All of us are part of a loving and supportive community of disciples who are helping each other follow the Way of Jesus, who calls us to a life of radical hospitality by loving God, loving one another, and loving ourselves.

Our Canterbury House was blessed by the Rt. Rev. David Jones, Suffragan Bishop of Virginia, on September 13, 2008.  Click here to learn more about it (and watch a video of the blessing service), or here, to learn about the Prince of Peace Episcopal Chapel.
