Service of Worship Trinity Sunday May 26, 2013 Eleven O’Clock in the Morning Service of Worship Trinity Sunday May 26, 2013 Eleven o’clock in the morning Keeping the heart of the University listening to the heart of God Icon of the Trinity, by Andrei Rublev, c. 1410. Trinity Sunday is the first of the many Sundays of ordinary time that follows Pentecost and eventually leads up to Advent. Today we celebrate the doctrine of the Holy Trinity—God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We celebrate the holiness of the triune God and seek to know how that holiness should take shape among the people of God. At the close of today’s service, the Lord’s Supper will be celebrated in the Memorial Chapel, located to the left of the chancel. Immediately following the Lord’s Supper, a Service of Healing will be held in the Memorial Chapel. The service consists of prayers for healing and wholeness, with anointing and laying on of hands. All are invited. The congregation is asked to remain silent during the prelude as a time of prayer and meditation. GATHERING BRASS PRELUDE Suite for Five Trumpets Ronald Lo Presti I.

    SERVICE OF WORSHIP Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost BRIDGING FAITH & LEARNING Sunday, August 23, 2020, 11:00 a.m. Detail, Duke Chapel Tower Les Todd, Duke Photography, 2013 In the Old Testament lesson from Isaiah, the prophet calls the people to turn to the Lord as they look for deliverance and salvation. He reminds them that the Lord provides comfort, hope, and the light of justice among the nations. In Matthew’s Gospel, Peter makes the declaration of faith that Jesus is the long-awaited messiah. Jesus affirms his faith by proclaiming that Peter will be the rock on which the church will be founded. The Apostle Paul writes to the church in Rome reminding them of the transforming work of God in and among them. He encourages the community of faith to present their bodies as living sacrifices as their spiritual worship. As we look to proclaim faith in Jesus the Messiah, we too are called to give our bodies to the Lord in acts of worship.

The main part of campus - aside from the Duke Forest and other properties - is nearly 2000 acres, with approximately 500 acres of that being actively maintained. The large amount of tree coverage, road network, topography, and natural drainage system, along with extensive designed landscapes, athletic fi elds and gardens, makes the campus an incredibly rich and complex place. These guidelines are intended to be a resource for creating and maintaining a campus landscape with a certain level of consistency that exists across various precincts with specifi c contextual requirements. These guidelines will help to set the character for the different landscape types while also providing detailed recommendations and precedents for what has and has not worked on campus previously.

  • General Information
    General Information 8 General Information Duke University In 1839 a group of citizens from Randolph and adjacent counties in North Carolina assembled in a log schoolhouse to organize support for a local academy founded a few months earlier by Brantley York. Prompted, they said, by “no small share of philanthropy and patriotism,” they espoused their belief that “ignorance and error are the banes not only of religious but also civil society which rear up an almost impregnable wall between man and happiness.” Union Institute, which they then founded, was reorganized first in 1851 as Normal College to train teachers, and eight years later as Trinity College, a liberal arts college, which later moved to the growing city of Durham, North Carolina. With the establishment of the James B. Duke Indenture of Trust in 1924, Trinity College became Duke University. Today, Duke is a two-campus institution with a student body of about 11,000, of whom 5,000 are enrolled in the graduate and professional programs. Established in 1969, The Fuqua School of Business joined the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, Law, Engineering, Divinity, and the Nicholas School of the Environment in preparing qualified individuals for professional leadership and developing excellence in education for the professions. The Campus. The main campus (West) of Duke University is a beautifully designed complex of buildings in Gothic architecture, bordered on the east by the Sarah P. Duke Gardens and on the west by the 8,000-acre Duke Forest. This campus is dominated by the Duke Chapel, whose 210-foot-high tower houses a 50-bell carillon.

  • SERVICE of WORSHIP Ninth Sunday After Pentecost BRIDGING FAITH & LEARNING Sunday, August 2, 2020, 11:00 A.M
    SERVICE OF WORSHIP Ninth Sunday After Pentecost BRIDGING FAITH & LEARNING Sunday, August 2, 2020, 11:00 a.m. Duke Chapel and Roses Les Todd, Duke Photography, 2014 The psalm writer blesses the Lord, the one who is the creator of the heavens and earth and the helper of God’s people. Without the Lord, the psalmist recognizes the people would be like those overtaken by flood waters—helpless and hopeless. James encourages the community of believers to hold one another up in prayer. When sisters and brothers are suffering, sick, or sinful and when they are cheerful and glad, the community of faith is to lift each one before the Lord in prayer. Like the psalmist, James recognizes that help comes from the Lord. The gospel lesson from Mark highlights both the reward of any who work for the good of those who bear Christ’s name, and judgment for those who create stumbling blocks for any seeking to follow Jesus. Gathering Opening Voluntary Concerto in B-flat (opus 4) George Frideric Handel (1685–1759) I. Ordinario e staccato/Allegro II. Adagio III. Allegro, ma non presto Greeting and Call to Worship *Opening Hymn | See hymns at the back of the bulletin.

For we flatter ourselves in our own eyes that our iniquity cannot be found out and hated. The words of our mouths are mischief and deceit; we have ceased to act wisely and do good.

    The Adhan Controversy in Historical Perspective Interpenetrating Protestant, Secular, and Pluralist Paradigms at Duke University, 1839-2016 Scott Muir, Duke University Abstract This article illustrates how the 2015 adhan controversy exposed tensions between Protestant, pluralist, and secular paradigms at Duke University. It challenges both historical and contemporary models of the relationship between religion and higher education that assert the predominance of a single paradigm by illustrating how all three have been present throughout Duke’s history, evolving and interacting through complex and contingent ebbs and flows. An interactive model is proposed for comparing how particular institutions at times have balanced (a) honoring a majority religious heritage, (b) fostering a religiously inclusive environment, and (c) creating power structures fair to all. Keywords: pluralism, secularism, Protestant establishment, American religion, higher education Introduction: The Adhan Controversy as Clash Between Protestant, Pluralist, and Secular Paradigms In January of 2015, a campus controversy surrounding the broadcasting of a Muslim call (adhan) to Friday jum’ah prayers from the tower of Duke University Chapel exploded into an international media frenzy, revealing palpable tensions between Protestant, pluralist, and secular paradigms within the university and beyond. The intention to broadcast the adhan was announced as the latest expansion of pluralism at Duke, a historically Methodist, research- driven institution. As Associate Dean of Religious Life Christy Lohr Sapp wrote in an op-ed 1 The Adhan Controversy in Historical Perspective in the local paper, “This opportunity represents a larger commitment to religious pluralism that is at the heart of Duke’s mission and connects the university to national trends in religious accommodation.” Conservative Protestants inside and outside the community rallied to defend exclusive Christian ownership of one of the most powerful symbols on campus.

  • The Architecture of Jewish Student Centers on American University Campuses
    arts Article Situational Ecumenism: The Architecture of Jewish Student Centers on American University Campuses Jeremy Kargon School of Architecture & Planning, Morgan State University, Baltimore, MD 21251, USA; [email protected] Received: 28 June 2019; Accepted: 18 August 2019; Published: 23 August 2019 Abstract: Since the start of the 20th century, the presence of Jewish students on American university campuses required accommodation of their religious practices. Jewish activities, including prayer, took place in existing campus buildings designed for other purposes. Eventually, at some universities, facilities were built to serve Jewish religious and social needs. These Jewish Student Centers, which include worship spaces yet are typologically different from synagogues, generally have to accommodate the diverse religious streams that characterize Jewish life in the United States. To do so, both architects and Jewish organizations have adapted the idea of ecumenism, by which related sects seek unity through fellowship and dialogue, not doctrinal agreement. Three examples—at Yale, Duke University, and the University of California San Diego—demonstrate differently the situational ecumenism at the core of their designs. These buildings, and other Jewish Student Centers elsewhere, make visible the intersection between American collegiate and Jewish religious values, variously defined. Keywords: Jews; architecture; college; university; student center 1. Introduction As universities in the United States sought to bolster their research mission in the late 19th century, schools founded by religious sects shifted their undergraduate emphasis towards secular education (Geiger 2015; Veysey 1970). Doing so attracted students from backgrounds that reflected the changing demographics of an immigrant society. Universities such as Harvard and Yale—established in colonial times to educate ministers for Congregationalist New England—now had to educate Catholics, Baptists, and Jews seeking to enter academic and professional ranks (Coe and Davidson 2001, p.
