"God, the source of our healing, the scars you revealed in Jesus's hands and side lead us to believe that in you no wound is beyond restoration." — Agetta Awijaya, Duke Divinity student and Chapel Scholar, in the Prayers of the People during Sunday's service

@AlfredStreetBC "It is anti-closure and anti-dominance. It's the embrace of the wide community of God and the one great fellowship of love throughout the whole wide earth. It is, as we say in our vision statement at Duke University Chapel: We respond to the all-inclusive love of God."

Duke Chapel Dean Luke Powery offered words of wisdom to graduating students in his reflection, titled "The Company We Keep," during the Baccalaureate Services over Commencement Weekend.

[Duke Chapel @DukeChapel]

"So, as you graduate and move into another chapter of life, think about who you want to be and become," he said, "because who you spend time with says something not only about who you are, but the future you desire, not only for yourself, but for the world."
