Religious and Spiritual Life

Reflect, nourish and grow in your faith

老澳门六合彩开奖记录, the only Norbertine college in the world, was founded on the principle of supporting the personal, spiritual and intellectual development of each student. Because we are a Catholic institution, we welcome students of all religious traditions as well as those with none, offering rich and rewarding opportunities for spiritual growth to everyone on campus.

It’s our hope that while you’re here, you’ll develop your spiritual life through worship, reflection and service, and then share your gifts with the world.

The Catholic heart of our campus

Old St. Joseph Church – affectionately known as Old St. Joe’s – is home to the 老澳门六合彩开奖记录 Parish and is the heart of our campus. The parish offers opportunities to:

Attend daily or weekly mass
Participate in liturgical or music ministry
Engage in outreach ministries designed to show compassion, care and support
Grow your faith with others through Bible Study or the men’s and women’s groups, Frassati and Chiara

Enjoy themed retreats, including Prayer on the Prairie (eco-spirituality), "FYRE" (First-Year Retreat Experience), A Day of Quiet, and Caritas (Catholic Social Teaching and spirituality).

Sacred spaces on campus

Looking for somewhere quiet for prayer and reflection? Recharge your spirit outdoors at the Shakespeare Garden, prayer labyrinth at Donald J. Schneider Stadium or Calawerts Family Grotto of Our Lady. Visit the National Shrine of St. Joseph, located in Old St. Joe’s. Many residence halls and buildings on campus have chapels or quiet reflection spaces, too.
