For 50 years Tyndale Seminary has offered theological education to women and men, who have then gone on and out to faithfully serve Jesus and His church around the world in a variety of capacities and callings.

Our speaker is Seminary Dean Emerita, Dr. Janet Clark, who will be receiving Tyndale’s Distinguished Service Award.

Welcome to all our new Tyndale students who began studies over the summer and are beginning this fall from the School of Education, the School of Arts and Sciences, and the Seminary! And welcome back to everyone else! As is tradition at Tyndale University, we begin the traditional fall semester with our Commencement Chapel.

Our President Dr. Marjory Kerr will be speaking on “God’s Provision” and our faculty with process in full academic regalia.

As is our tradition, we will celebrate our 2026 graduating classes with Convocation Chapel beginning at 11:15am. Please join us as we’ll hear from our President, Dr. Marjory Kerr, and from two student speakers representing their graduating classes (UG and Seminary/Graduate studies).

This week’s speaker is Dr. Narry Santos, Associate Professor of Christian Ministry and Intercultural Leadership (Seminary). Narry will conclude the 2025-2026 chapel series on “Hope in Chaotic Times” by reflecting on passages from the Gospel of John related to Jesus’ last days and the hope of resurrection and restoration.

This week Kyle Best (BA ’21), Tyndale’s Community Life Specialist, will continue our Community Chapel series on “Hope in Chaotic Times” with a message entitled “Hosannas in the Chaos”.

This week we are very pleased to welcome Dr. Marilyn Draper, Associate Professor of Practical Theology (Seminary), as our speaker.
