Welcome
Our Mission
University Ministries serves the mission of the University of Scranton by making visible and effective our Roman Catholic and Jesuit identity. Inspired by the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the spirituality of St. Ignatius Loyola, we seek to reach out with love and respect to all and to be a fire that kindles other fires by...
- Nurturing and celebrating our faith through spirit-filled sacramental worship and prayer.
- Educating our students in the faith and teachings of the Church in ways that integrate their educational and personal experiences so as to find God in all things.
- Developing in our students habits of reflection and prayer in order to discern God’s presence and action in their lives.
- Fostering in our students a passion for justice that is rooted in faith and expressed in action.
- Empowering our students to be leaders in ministry and service as men and women for and with others in our community, university, church and world.
About University Ministries
University Ministries offers Sunday Mass, daily Mass and the Sacrament of Reconciliation, as well as special liturgies that gather the entire University community. In addition, we hold many different types of retreats at our own beautiful lakeside Conference and Retreat Center.
On the University campus there are numerous opportunities to learn more about the Catholic/Christian faith, and to pray and share faith with students, faculty and staff.
