Welcome to the Harvard Graduate Christian Community (HGCC) homepage! We serve students at a number of Harvard graduate schools: Arts and Sciences (GSAS), Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS), Education (GSE), Design (GSD), Divinity (HDS), and more.

We are a community of graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty who challenge each other to submit our lives to Jesus Christ. His message changes all aspects of our lives - spiritual, intellectual, and relational. We therefore seek to unite our faith and scholarship through prayer, worship, study of scripture, discussion, and more. We welcome those who do not come as Christians to join us in exploring who Jesus really is.

The HGCC is a university-recognized student organization supported by InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and affiliated with the Harvard chaplains.

Announcements: (last updated 26 Aug 2012)

• Welcome new and returning students / scholars!

  The email list is our main method of communication within the community, and it's the best way to stay up-to-date on what's happening. There are two email lists - a moderated one for official fellowship activities and a second, open list where members are encouraged to post about anything of interest to the community - please sign up for both! Stay tuned to the email list for announcements about activities as we start the 2012-2013 academic year.

  We encourage those new to campus to be connected to a local church. We have compiled a list of local churches, along with contact information for hosts at each church who would be delighted at the chance to introduce you to their community.
