Norwich is non-sectarian. However, believing that acquisition of and/or affirmation of one's own personal spiritual convictions is an essential part of each individual's character development and education, the University provides religious services in White Chapel throughout the year. Two Catholic masses and at least one Protestant worship service are conducted weekly. Two part-time Catholic Fathers and one full-time Protestant Chaplain minister to the Northfield campus. An Islamic prayer room is available in the basement of White Chapel, and Jewish students avail themselves of the local synagogues in Montpelier and Stowe.

Local houses of worship for different faiths and denominations, including addresses, phone numbers, and identification of spiritual leaders, can be found in a pamphlet located in the literature rack immediately inside the entrance to the Chapel sanctuary.  Many religious groups offer free transportation to our students for attendance at services. After the initial week of training, recruits may leave campus to attend such religious services.
