What students say

“Hi, my name is Sophia. I've really enjoyed being a part of the Newman Association because it has led me to meet other Catholics on campus and made me feel less alone in my faith. Everyone I've met through the Newman Center is super nice and welcoming. Our meetings and weekly Mass have helped me feel close to God even when I'm away from home. It's also nice to be a part of an organization when so many other clubs have not been able to be very active this semester due to COVID.”

Sophia
Student at Newman Association SUNY Plattsburgh

“Before coming to Butler and joining the Butler Catholic Community, my relationship with God was surface-level. I did the things that I was expected to do, like attend Mass, but I never thought deeply about my faith or how to truly connect with God. So, when I was invited to BCC groups like men's group and bible study, I met people who were truly living out their faith in an open and genuine way. I learned how to make my faith my own and that I was meant for deeper relationship with God. I will be forever thankful for the BCC and how it changed my faith life in such a positive way.”

WHAT HIGH SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS SAY

“Providence Academy is grateful for our 10th year of participation in the Newman Connection High School Outreach Program.  It is a gift to our graduates and their families to know that students will be warmly welcomed into the vibrant life of Catholic ministry upon their arrival on campus.”

Sarah H.
Director of College Preparations
Providence Academy, Plymouth, MN

“I used to send individual letters to dozens of Newman Centers to let them know that our high school students were coming. This would take many hours. I now just send a single email to Newman Connection and the High School Outreach Program takes care of the rest.  Thanks, Newman Connection!”

WHAT CAMPUS MINISTERS SAY

“I was hesitant to join the Newman Ministry small group at first. I was concerned that the meetings wouldn’t be worth my time, or that I would get a pitch to join an organization that would ask for dues or some big commitment. What I have found, instead, is a group of ministers who have become real friends. I know they are praying for me and with me, as I am for them.I am so grateful for the community we have formed, and I am quick to encourage other campus ministers to join a Newman Ministry small group! This last year has been one of the most challenging in ministry and knowing that I have these people to laugh with, and cry with, has been a gift.” 

Andrea F.
Campus Minister,
Newman Sacramento

“I feel as if I received both a gift of the heart and of the head. I enjoyed meeting other CM’s and hearing their stories of work and life. I also gained insight and skills for hosting online support groups and plan to put them into practice immediately. The timing of my small group participation has me thanking God. I could not have guessed when we began that I would be facilitating something similar with college students in order to help them grow in this time of crisis and separation. I am glad to have had the chance to learn from Patti!”
