Begun with seed money from St. George's and Christ Church, St. Augustine's Episcopal Chapel has served the Vanderbilt community since the mid-1950s. In recent years, the chapel has become a vibrant place of worship and outreach not only for Vanderbilt, but also for the wider Nashville community. Unique in a campus setting, the intergenerational community encompasses ecumenism, community service, overseas missions and campus ministry.
