Religion at Wellesley

<p>Assuming not too much has changed, there are two Evangelical Christian/Non-denominational student groups on Campus: Real Life and Inter-varsity Christian Fellowship. Both organizations are affiliated with larger, national groups that have chapters on many campuses (Real Life is a subset of the Campus Crusade for Christ) and seem to meet in large and small groups on multiple weeknights. Neither’s website names a particular parish or congregation or any Sunday activities. I can’t tell you the finer points of difference between the two groups- to my untrained eyes they should be competing for the same members. </p>

<p>While there are plenty of churches in Wellesley, several of which are Protestant, none bill themselves as Evangelical (MA Christians are 2/3 Catholic with all of the other flavors of Christianity dividing up rest evenly enough that you aren’t likely to find one type of every church in every town). I know of someone who did a church search and joined IVCF, and got baptized, became Christian, etc, etc, so I am sure you can at least get a recommendation for a congregation in Boston. With the senate bus, you should be able be on time for nearly any church that had a start time at or after 9:30.</p>

<p>Hope this helps!</p>
