Campus Ministry
Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College Campus Ministry embodies a spirit of faith to transform ourselves, our communities and our world. We are a Catholic ministry dedicated to providing opportunities for all students. We encourage spiritual growth for students, leadership opportunities and social justice initiatives. We partner with Franciscan Young Adult Ministry for our ministry engagements in order to provide extensive opportunities to grow in Christian fellowship.

Spiritual Growth
Spiritual direction, retreats, small group, and prayer experiences are all opportunities students have for spiritual growth. Typically, these activities are led by other students. We collaborate with the Sisters of Providence and the University Ministry at St. Joseph’s Parish to ensure a variety of experiences.
Service and Social Justice
Campus Ministry coordinates Alternative Break Service Trips in the fall and spring. There are other various opportunities throughout the year for service and social justice both on and off campus!
