University of Dubuque

Spouse Group

The Spouse Group is a place to share fellowship with spouses of other students who are attending the seminary. We do a variety of activities including Bible study, sharing and prayer, craft nights, guest speakers (including professors) and other fun activities.

We are NOT a group for female spouses only, but for male spouses as well. The sharing of information the group offers is important during the time at the seminary. The group acts as a means of support for spouses as they have their own unique experiences while their spouses are at UDTS.

Meetings are usually held in the first floor lounge of Severance Hall from 7:00 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. unless otherwise noted on the calendar. 

If you have a question about the UDTS Spouse Group please contact Dana at danaandshawn@msn.com.
