Spring Semester will be soon coming to a close with Finals on the immediate horizon. If you are looking for a quiet place to study, Newman Center will observe periods of quiet study time (students are free to pray, draw, or study silently).
A blessed Easter season is upon us and we are very grateful for all your prayers for our students who were received into our Catholic Church last Easter Vigil Mass!!!🎉🎉🎉
Shoutout to all our students and volunteers who helped make this a joyous occasion, as well as the sponsors and volunteers (Dcn. Dave, Dcn. Steve and Dr. Michele) who accompanied the candidates and catechumens on their faith journey 💟😇🙏
Please include in prayer our 13 students and their sponsors as they prepare to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation!
This year we are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Newman Center building being on campus, and 85th of our organization existing as a whole. Students, family, alumni, and friends are welcome! We will have a silent auction, dinner, awards, and dance! Ticket sales are LIVE! It is $40 per regular ticket. For more details check: tinyurl.com/csobanquet25
