Campus Ministry

Campus ministry gathers Catholics on public and private campuses for prayer, worship, and learning to bring the light of the Gospel to the concerns and hopes of the academic community. Campus ministers are a public presence and serve students, faculty, and staff as a sign and instrument of the Kingdom in the academic world.

What happens in campus ministry?

As students prepare to head off to colleges and universities this fall, many for the first time, there is bound to be a mixture of excitement, anxiety, and anticipation. The transition from home to school is often one of the most challenging times in a young person’s life. Being able to make new friendships and connect with other like-minded people who share a Catholic faith, is a huge step toward easing into collegiate life. Participation in campus ministry provides a perfect opportunity to do just that.

Campus Ministry Support

The Diocese of Manchester serves and supports campus ministry in the colleges and universities in New Hampshire. Campus ministry provides Catholic students with ongoing opportunities for prayer, worship, putting their faith into action, and learning to live their faith joyfully as young adults. Campus ministers are an important public presence and serve students, faculty, staff, in the often-challenging academic world. Support for this ministry comes from donations to the New Hampshire Catholic Appeal. Learn more about the Appeal and how you can contribute.
