Jumah Prayer

Jumah Prayer is hosted every Friday at 1:30 p.m. at the John M. Reeves All Faiths Chapel in Memorial Hospital. It is open to any member of our community both inside the hospital and outside. The Chapel is conveniently located to where it can be easily reached if coming from the school campus. We are actively encouraging members of our community to lead the congregation. If you need help in preparing a sermon, we have tools and guides that we can offer to help you.

Directions:

  • If coming from the school campus (requires valid ID): find Bondurant Hall and enter Memorial Hospital either through Bondurant Hall or outside across from the Beach Cafe. Once inside, walk down the hallway and stay to the right until you see a stairwell on your left hand side. Go down this stair well to the first floor of memorial hospital. Exit the stairwell to the left and go down the first hall to your right. The chapel will be to your right.

  • If coming from inside of the hospital (can enter as a guest): enter the hospital through one of the main entrances and make your way to the terrace cafe (past the main lobby). Past the stairs to the Terrace Cafe, there is a large, well-lit walkway slightly going upwards, follow this past the gift shop. Take a right at the end and go up the escalators to the first floor of memorial hospital. Veer slightly left and walk straight until you see the chapel on your left.
