Catholic Campus Ministry
The Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministry represents the Diocese of Evansville to the colleges and universities located within the diocese. Through campus Newman Centers and Newman Clubs, we seek to evangelize and catechize the academic community by means of a broad ministry which forms the faith community, appropriates the faith, forms Christian conscience, educates for justice, facilitates personal development, and develops leaders for the future.
Catholic Campus Ministry provides a vital connection between the Church and higher education. We follow the principles outlined in Empowered by the Spirit: Campus Ministry Faces the Future, the pastoral letter on campus ministry issued by the USCCB.
"We see the Church entering into the very heart of the academic community, challenging faculty, staff, students and institutions with the claims of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In this vision, campus ministry is both a ministry of evangelization and a ministry of catechesis."
