University Ministries

"Today too there is a need for disciples of Christ who give unstintingly to their time and energy to serve the Gospel. There is a need for young people who will allow God's love to burn within them and who will respond generously to his urgent call, just as many young blesseds and saints did in the past and also in more recent times."

-Pope Benedict XVI,
World Youth Day, 2008

Christian Education

RCIA--Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults

The RCIA program prepares those students who are interested in becoming Catholic for baptism and/or confirmation, with reception into the Church during second semester. For more information, please contact Amy Hoegen, hoegena2@scranton.edu.

Spiritual Direction

Those interested in broadening and enhancing their relationship with God through prayer meet with a spiritual director monthly to discuss their prayer life and their ever-changing relationship with God and with Christ in our midst. For more information, please contact Cathy Seymour, seymourc1@scranton.edu.

Offered during Lent, these gatherings encourage conversations among students, faculty, and staff about real-world issues related to Catholic Social Teaching.
