Chaplaincy Resources

Realizing God-Given Potential

As an Episcopal School, Porter-Gaud places emphasis on the development of character and spiritual growth. We have chaplains in each division who are masterful at guiding our community members through their spiritual journeys. They each lead weekly chapel services and also teach classes to every student within the Religion and Philosophy Department.

Our chaplains are not only dedicated to the students of PG, but everyone in our community, from parents and teachers to facilities staff and board members.

Collect for All Saints Day

Almighty God, you have knit together your elect in one communion and fellowship in the mystical body of your Son Christ our Lord: Give us grace so to follow your blessed saints in all virtuous and godly living, that we may come to those ineffable joys that you have prepared for those who truly love you; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.
