Jamie WillifordSpiritual Life @ Averett

Hello and welcome to Averett's Spiritual Life page.  The office of spiritual life exists to provide a spiritual presence to students of faith and non-faith by offering safe environments of counseling, worship, and opportunities to serve in the community.  Below you will see some of the programs we offer as well as the contacts for each organization.  I hope this proves meaningful to you and that you have the opportunity to get plugged in!

As you go through many transitions and changes, CSU wants to provide a place for spiritual discovery, fellowship, and encouragement. We are committed to equipping students to pursue a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ, to develop a deep sense of community with each other and to be the hands and feet of Christ to both the college community and to the greater community of Danville and beyond. Though Southern Baptist in origin and tradition, CSU is made up of students of every denomination.
