Living in a Covenant Community Students who live on campus interact in close proximity with one another. Living in a covenant community is distinctly different to living singularly. NHCC’s campus is a collective neighborhood and it holds different standards of conduct and behavior. Activities that took place independently and individually may now require a more interdependent cooperation. Therefore, what may be permissible for an individual’s taste may be improper in a collective community.
Prayer The most important aspect of personal development is cultivating a disciplined personal lifestyle of daily commitment to prayer and devotional reading of God’s Word. Each student is encouraged to intentionally set aside time in their schedule to develop a personal relationship with God through prayer. Prayer rooms provide a place for students to be alone and quiet. These prayer rooms are not to be used for visiting or counseling in order to be available to students who wish to use them for prayer.
SO MUCH YOU CAN DO There is always something happening at New Hope Christian College. Nearly every department offers the opportunity to volunteer, join a club, or just jump into one of the many activities floating around. Stop by the Morning Star Café or do a workout in our exercise room in the Rexius Event Center.
