What's New at Newman

 

Newman Catholic Student Center Parish now offers Online Giving for parishioners who prefer to donate through automatic draft.  Online Giving is a secure and personalized way to give to the parish.  Sign up for Online Giving by clicking on the DONATE ONLINE button (in top right corner) and sign up for your account.

When we serve others, we are imitating Jesus. We advance from volunteer to steward when we consciously choose to dedicate a portion of our time, talent, and treasure to the Lord, as a token of our gratitude for all He has given to us.

Faith in Action

Empowered by the Spirit of God in the Word and enabled by the love of God in the Eucharist we are called to live the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Christ has no body now but yours
No hands, no feet on earth but yours

                            St Teresa of Avila

Put your body, hands and feet into action with the Newman Center.

Catechesis

Faith is not just doctrine to be learned for a lifetime. It’s a vibrant relationship with the living God, a commitment to the personal growth and spiritual conversion of an on-going journey of faith. The Newman Parish warmly invites you to deepen your faith and your relationship with God through participation in our catechesis programs. Ironically, one of the best ways to learn more about your faith is to teach! The root meaning of the word catechist is “to echo.” Many catechists have found their own faith enriched by echoing their faith and serving as mentors and guides to children and youth on their faith journey. Strengthen your relationship with God and knowledge of the Catholic Church, volunteer to serve as a catechist!

Spiritual Growth Opportunities

Newman is more than Sunday Mass. It’s a place where every one of us — whether a student or a part of what we call our permanent community — can grow spiritually and socially. We invite you to look over the opportunities summarized below and to participate in as many of them as you wish. Come grow with us.

Are you interested in Real Conversation? Faith that Challenges? Action that Matters?
Consider joining a Small Faith Group.

New and returning groups are forming now. Join one this semester! Seven weekly meetings, one hour a week.

What will they look like?  Some groups are for undergraduate students, some groups are inter-generational and made up of students, grad and undergrad, and adults from the permanent community.  You sign up for the group and the time that fits your schedule. Freshman groups meet in Dorms, 1st semester.

What will they feel like? Small faith groups offer ways of feeling connected outside the Sunday Liturgy, ways to begin meaningful conversations, ways to reflect on God’s presence in our lives & to form relationships that can last. 

Why join?  Small communities offer an opportunity for students and older adult members to hear and respond to the beckoning voice of the Spirit in their lives.
