This summer, Cedarville expanded and renovated the Jeremiah Chapel.
After 20 years of faithful use, the chapel showed signs of wear and
could no longer accommodate the growing student body.
With gifts from many generous donors already in place, the men from
Brock Hall quickly removed chapel pews during finals week of spring
semester, and the renovation began. With Getting Started Weekend as
the pressing deadline, construction crews worked hard all summer to
complete the renovation and expansion. The chapel was completed just
in time for students to return in August, and the first chapel was held
August 22 as part of Fall Bible Conference.
The renovation and expansion included:
New carpet and paint
New and additional seating
Updated sound system
New lighting
Thank you to the entire Cedarville family for your generosity toward
the chapel renovation. Because of your faithfulness, students will be
impacted through daily chapel for many years to come.

PLAN FOR THE FUTURE
To help prepare for Cedarville’s next century of impact, we are offering
a complimentary service we believe will bless you and your family.
Cedarville has partnered with PhilanthroCorp, a Christ-centered
organization that can help you think through your wills and estate
documents from a biblical worldview. They do not sell products or
manage your money, so nothing they do is intended to replace your
current advisers. Your personal information will be held in confidence
and will not be shared with the University.
The process begins with a phone interview by PhilanthroCorp where
they learn your story, including your wishes and hopes for future
generations. PhilanthroCorp then provides tools that can guide
you to legacy decisions within the privacy of your home. Based on
those decisions, PhilanthroCorp will design a plan that can be easily
implemented by your advisers, or by an attorney in their network at
reduced rates. Cedarville Advancement will provide the services of
PhilanthroCorp to you free of charge. Simply call 1-800-876-7958,
and an estate specialist from
PhilanthroCorp will help you
determine a plan that fits
you best.
* Clyde Autio passed away in 2017.
