Worship & Memorials

Robert Carr Chapel serves as a meaningful gathering place for worship, reflection and remembrance at TCU. From campus worship services and sacred traditions to memorial services honoring members of the TCU community, the chapel provides a space for moments that bring people together in faith, care and connection.

Robert Carr Chapel worship services are a long-standing tradition since its opening in 1953. Open to the entire campus, TCU hosts campus-wide worship services around the sacred seasons of the Christian year and the academic calendar.

Chapel worship services include the annual Frogs First Chapel (formerly known as Howdy Week Chapel) for incoming students, Carols by Candlelight each December, and Ash Wednesday services commencing the Lenten season.

Additionally, several student religious organizations and Brite Divinity School host their weekly worship events in the chapel. These worship services range from Catholic Mass to non-denominational Christian weekly worship.

For more information about this year’s TCU’s chapel worship series or student religious organizations, please visit the Office of Religious and Spiritual Life website.

The chapel is available for memorial services for active students, active or retired faculty and staff, or alumni who died while in active duty of one of the armed services. Unfortunately, we’re unable to accommodate others in the community due to existing scheduling and campus needs.
