Reflection Center

A place for Meditation, Prayer, Reflection, or other forms of individual religious expression including opportunities for interreligious dialogue, interfaith education, and spiritual practice. Utah Valley University is committed to providing meaningful activities that contribute to students’ physical, academic, social, and spiritual well-being whether you believe in God, Gods, or no god.

Our Space

We want students to find a space to express their religious or ethical identity, be challenged by hearing about other identities, and be equipped to find ways to be in relationship no matter how we orient around religion.

Out of Many Book Club

In the Fall 2020, the Reflection Center invites you to participate in a book club on Eboo Patel's Out of Many. The club will include online gathering and training for interfaith engagement and collaboration with other schools across the state of Utah. Books are Free!

All are Welcome!

Email EllieT@uvu.edu to sign up!

Faith & Film

The Reflection Center is excited to announce for Fall 2020 a Faith & Film Series. We are excited to bring to UVU three wonderful films about a variety of worldviews. And, of course, there will be popcorn for the film screening and pizza for the discussion!

First Wednesdays at 5pm in Fall 2020!

Prayer & Meditation Room Open

As the Student Life and Wellness Center is still open, the Prayer and Meditation rooms are open and available for campus use.

Please maintain social distancing while utilizing the space.

Convening Room

The Convening Room is a space for religious club meetings, gatherings, and interfaith events. This is not a place that tells you how to engage in your faith, but engages you in opportunities to learn more about interfaith dialogue and the beliefs and practices of others. The library is an important part of this process along with the activities and events held in the space.

Meditation Room

The Meditation Room is the room at the end of the hallway. It is an intentionally silent space. There are meditation cushions available to borrow from the staff. We also try to keep the space technology free with the exception of meditation apps or timers.
