Frequently Asked Questions about Chapel
Each student should acquire 20 chapel credits in order to meet the requirement. These credits are acquired by attending Breakout Chapels and The Gathering. Each semester students will enroll in a Breakout Chapel of their choosing. It will meet on a specified day and time for 10 weeks during the semester. The Gathering meets each Tuesday in Allen Arena at 10:55 a.m. each week of the semester.
You will use an app called iAttended to track your chapel credits. Each chapel event will have a QR code for you to scan using your app. You will be able to see how many chapels you have attended on the homepage of the app.
- Download iAttended onto your phone
- Set up an account using your @mail.lipscomb.edu email address
- Verify your account by opening your email, opening the email from iAttended and clicking the link to verify your email
If you are having trouble with your app, you should delete your app and reinstall it and check to make sure that your phone is updated.
If that doesn’t solve it, contact the Office of Accountability and Community Standards.
