Thinking About Priesthood, Religious Life, or Lay Ecclesial Ministry?
All who are baptized are called to "work in the fields of the Lord". If you're thinking about the possibility of priesthood or religious life or working in the Church as a lay ecclesial minister, we'd like to talk to you! The pastoral staff at the Newman Center are ready to assist with your discernment, with information, experience, and spiritual direction. You won't feel pressured. We're here to help.
