WELCOME PATRICK HENRY COLLEGE On Campus Wing Chapel at Patrick Henry College Wing Chapels are an important part of spiritual life of students. They are small groups that meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:40-10:20 a.m. at Patrick Henry College. Wing Chapel is led by student Resident Assistants who give students the chance to study God’s Word or other classic Christian devotional works on a more personal level. Wing Chapel brings brotherhood and fellowship among students. It also teaches Biblical preaching apart from academic studies.
Brotherhood : As compared to other Christian colleges, Patrick Henry College’s rules on wing chapel are pretty simple and easy. Corporate chapel is required three times a week, with ten skips allowed per semester. Each wing in each dorm has a mandatory chapel twice a week with no skips. The topics for the chapel bring a sense of brotherhood among students every time. Each wing at Patrick Henry College is made up of random Christian guys from all over the US irrespective of their qualities, colour etc to bring brotherhood among them and to unite them. The only common thing in them is the desire to serve Christ and spread Christianity.
Fellowship : In recent years, fellowship is becoming hard to come by. It seems like people are withdrawing more and more into themselves through social media and other social activities. Wing chapel at Patrick Henry College contributes to fellowship as it connects the students at least twice a week and thus helps bring them together. Students talk about nonsense, make fun of each other just to reconnect before the beginning of actual chapel. Students also talk about serious subjects which actually bring them closer and thus promote fellowship. At Patrick Henry College fellowship is an investment. With wing chapels and frequent interactions, students built such strong friendships.

As the proverb says that “as iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of a friend”. This signifies that how good friends are able to keep each other accountable along with strengthening each other. At Patrick Henry College students grew a habit of calling each other out whenever something concerned is there. Wing chapel taught the students that they could address problems in each other when they capture them. This practice also forces the students to shunt their pride, since being accountable to anyone is certainly a humbling experience.
â–Ł Wing Chapel at Patrick Henry College validates a very long-forgotten rule: that happiness requires discipline. Whether this discipline is self-imposed or from outside does not matter at all. At Patrick Henry College discipline is self-imposed by the students which is the fruit of Wing Chapel.
