Newman Center Pals
Newman Center Pals is a ministry organized by our Peer Minister for Social Events, Bonnie Thibault. This ministry provides and opportunity for upper classmen to serve as both a friend and mentor to underclassmen, especially new students and incoming freshmen. Fellowship and guidance is crucial, especially during these Pandemic times, for students to come together to build up the Body of Christ. Through Newman Center Pals, one upper classman (3rd years & up) will be paired with one lower classman (1st & 2nd years) near the beginning of the Fall 2020 semester. Once the Newman Center Pals meet their pair, they are able to grow in a friendship centered around the love of God. Our Peer Minister for Social Events, Bonnie Thibault will provide guidance as well as various opportunities for Newman Center pals to come together. Sign up to participate as either an upper classman or lower classman!
