Campus Ministry
The Pace Center and Grace & Holy Trinity Church share a covenant partnership. Pace is an inclusive, multicultural, interfaith VCU student center at VCU. Pace is a place where students feel their unique stories and gifts are valued. As a queer-affirming campus ministry, we believe all are created to live in relationships with one another, not in isolation. Contact Campus Minister & Pace Center Student Engagement Coordinator, the Rev. Russ Kerr at (804) 658-4064 or visit thepacecenter.com/about.
What is The Pace Center?
The Pace Center is located in the heart of VCU’s campus. We are grounded in traditional ministries such as Bible Study, weekly communion, and small groups. At the same time we offer innovative ways for students to explore their spirituality and find community. At Pace, students create and lead programs that showcase their gifts and the gifts of the VCU community. Check out www.thepacecenter.com for more information about the Campus Ministries at The Pace Center.
