We're diverse yet interconnected in Spirit!
So, let's join hands with each other
... With all of creation
... With God!
Campus Ministry at Holy Family University, in the Roman Catholic tradition, is committed to making the campus community more aware of the presence of God, especially as expressed through the living spirit of God's son, Jesus Christ.
The primary goal of campus ministry is to create a sense of a faith community
among students, faculty, administrators, and support staff by providing opportunities
for worship, guidance, and service to others.
Eucharistic celebrations, prayer services, scripture sharing, retreats, social justice activities, and personal counseling are offered to enrich everyone involved with campus life.
The campus ministry team is the guiding force behind the spiritual efforts on campus. The Campus Minister's office is located in Room 224 of the Campus Center, Northeast Philadelphia Campus.
