Eliana Rivas

Eliana Rivas serves as a Resource Specialist with the Department of Transformative Opportunities.

Eliana earned a Bachelor of Arts in Christian Studies from Anderson University and a Master of Divinity from the Clamp Divinity School of Anderson University. Most recently, she has served as a Chaplain Resident for Prisma Health's Greenville Memorial Hospital in Greenville, South Carolina.

“I am passionate about campus ministry because it pictures quite beautifully the reality of the Kingdom of God in the world,” says Eliana. “It’s a group of people from a myriad of backgrounds with unique individual stories who are brought together and bound in unity by their new shared identity who find themselves at the niche intersection of ‘now and not-yet.’ This formative time for transformational identity-building in this niche setting indelibly sets the stage for the rest of students’ lives as they seek and pursue the heart of Jesus, and I am deeply honored to be a part of it.”
