Our Mission

Led by the Holy Spirit, University Ministries at the University of Scranton seeks to engage all members of the community in promoting and living out the Gospel values of Jesus Christ. Inspired by the Spirituality of Saint Ignatius of Loyola and strengthened by the sacramental life of the Church, we are committed to using our God-given talents by reaching out with love and respect to all through our service for peace and justice, education, prayer, worship and faith formation.

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. We have numerous opportunities for service, both nationally and internationally, and we provide time and space to reflect on those service experiences in a faith-based, justice-focused context.  In addition, we hold many different types of retreats at our own beautiful lakeside Retreat Center and have faith sharing groups right here on campus.  

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.
