York University offers a unique environment for faith-based programming on campus. The Interfaith Council is designed to provide a forum where harmony and good will permit the diversified religious communities at York to address common concerns and express mutual support.
The Interfaith Council at York is administered and supported by the Centre for Student Community and Leadership Development (SCLD), which devotes staff time and resources to the smooth and effective operation of the Interfaith Council with a view of enhancing the faith-based student club experience at York. The Chair and other members of the Interfaith Council may be contacted through SCLD.
The Scott Religious Centre provides a comfortable chapel for religious services and peaceful meditation room for individual introspection and quiet prayer. It also provides office space for many of the faith-based student clubs.
The chapel may be booked on a regular basis or for a single religious event through SCLD (416-736-5144) from September 1 through April 30 and Hospitality York (416-736-5020) from May 1 through August 31. The Scott Religious Centre has entrances on the ground floor in Central Square and outside on the second floor between the Scott Library and the Ross Building.
