<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nCharlie Ashley ’28- <\/strong>Hey! My name is Charlie Ashley and I\u2019m a sophomore from Portland, Maine double majoring in DCS and RFSS (a mouthful). You might find me driving around the outskirts of Lewiston, antiquing after class, or camped out in Hedge on Sundays. I\u2019m the number one Beatles fan ever, and also very passionate about movies. Ask me for my favorite song, or Letterboxd top four, they change weekly. I have been co-leading {Pause}, but I will be studying abroad for the 2026-27 academic year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Mimi Bois ’27<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Susie Butler ’28<\/strong>– Helloooo! I\u2019m Susie from Bridgton, Maine! I\u2019m majoring in environmental studies and love to spend time outdoors, practice photography, and get creative! Find me at Crossroads!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Multifaith Chaplaincy has been a wonderful source of friendship, community, and love in my first year at Bates, and I can\u2019t wait to do it all again this school year! <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Kazumi Haag \u201828 <\/strong>is an Environmental Studies and Politics double major from College Park, MD.

No matter whether you see people outside of the Chaplaincy, when you are in it everyone is welcome and at home. You can walk in with a group or alone and always know you will be greeted with enthusiasm and grace. It\u2019s a safe space and a haven away from the busy Bates hustle and bustle.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Ahmednoor Hassan ’27<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Kitana James ’29<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Naomi Maloney ’28<\/strong> – Hi everyone! I\u2019m Naomi from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, double majoring in Anthropology and Africana Studies, and I\u2019m also a Bates Kessler Scholar. Around campus, you\u2019ll probably find me driving a golf cart as a Sports Medicine Aide for Bates Athletics or studying in Pettengill or Ladd Library. You can also usually find me cozied up watching some kind of true crime documentary. I love traveling and spending time with friends. The Multifaith Chaplaincy has become a home for me \u2014 a place where I can find peace, comfort, and time for reflection in the middle of busy college life. I\u2019m so excited to help coordinate the Stringfellow program this year and connect with new people in the Bates community!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fenna Oliphant-Linden ’26<\/strong> is an Africana major from Bethesda, Maryland.

If you are looking for Fenna on campus, you will be sure to find him somewhere on Frye Street, enjoying a cup of tea in the Multifaith Chaplaincy or, perhaps, on the quad with a guitar. At Bates, he is also involved with Campus Life’s Equity and Inclusion team and the Village Club Series so you might get lucky and find him in uniform in the Village. He is so SO stoked to return for his third year as a Multifaith Stringfellow and do his part in helping students find where they belong at Bates!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Multifaith is the beating heart of the Bates campus.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Angelica Paniagua ’28<\/strong>– Hi, my name is Angelica and I’m a Sophomore from Lawrence, Massachusetts! I love movies, books, learning about cultures through travel, canoeing, easy hikes, and dogs (especially mine). While I have yet to choose a major, I am interested in philosophy and anthropology. On campus, you will find me working on the second floor of commons, chilling on Frye Street, or taking long walks. The Multifaith Chaplaincy was an incredibly impactful part of my first-year experience, with my favorite memories being the Warm Welcome and Hearth. I’m excited to coordinate Hearth this Fall and Pause in the Winter and to meet new people :).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hana Roggendorf ’27<\/strong> is a Sociology major from West Hartford, Connecticut. She enjoys adventuring in the woods, swimming in rivers with friends, and gazing at the stars. Around Bates, she can be found admiring ducks next to the puddle, spending time in Lewiston Elementary schools, tossing a frisbee on the quad, or curled up in the Multifaith Nest. She is studying in Indonesia in the Fall and will be so excited to create new connections through Arts and Spirituality programs when she returns! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Multifaith has been a safe space to land throughout the chaos of college – it has made Bates feel like my home.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Jilly Scott-Lewis ’27<\/strong> is a Biochemistry major from Portland, OR.
