“When I Survey the Wondrous Cross” St Olaf College

St. Olaf College | Dakota County Minnesota

Boe Memorial Chapel grew from loss, memory and collective philanthropy. Lars W. Boe served as president of St. Olaf College from 1918 until his death in 1942, overseeing a significant period of institutional growth.

At Boe’s memorial service in 1943, Carleton College president Donald Cowling called upon the friends of St. Olaf to make possible, through their gifts, a great chapel in Boe’s honor. The resulting memorial campaign culminated a decade later when Boe Memorial Chapel opened for student use in 1953 and was formally dedicated in 1954.

The name therefore commemorates Boe’s leadership rather than identifying a single donor. The chapel stands as the product of collective giving by the wider St. Olaf community.

    Settled in Berrien Springs Michigan, Andrews University is the flagship educational institution of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and is made up of the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary, College of Arts and Sciences, School of Business Administration, School of Education, School of Health Professions, and the School of Architecture, Art & Design. We are named after John Nevins Andrews (1829–1883), the biggest thinker in the 19th-century Seventh-day Adventist Church.

    He was also the first sponsored missionary that the Church sent overseas. J.N. Andrews’ example of careful thought and compassionate action in Christian life is something we have taken to heart. Our motto is "Seek Knowledge. Affirm Faith. Change the World." For more information about who we are and how you can be a part of it, visit andrews.edu.
