Samford’s Convocation program exists to encourage spiritual growth and development by providing worship opportunities and programming that seeks to integrate faith and learning from a distinctively Christian perspective. As a graduation requirement for all undergraduate students, Convocation reinforces Samford’s identity as a Christ-centered university and is designed to build a community at Samford with values rooted in a biblical worldview.

There are 3 primary ways to receive convocation credits at Samford.

  1. Campus Worship – Every Tuesday at 10 a.m. in the Wright Center the Samford community meets together for a time of worship and encouragement from God’s Word.
  2. Cadres – Both on campus and community cadres exist to help students grow in their faith through a small group study or service project
  3. Convocation Events – These events are hosted at various times and places sponsored by partnering departments around campus to help develop spiritually and academically by providing programs that integrate faith and learning.
