Students at Newman
Campus Minister: Hello and welcome to the Newman Center! I’m excited to tell you about the wonderful things we have planned to make this your home away from home. You can see some regular events on this website and we can add you to our weekly email list to get even more. About me: I have been a member of this Newman Center for 6 years, and have been on staff here for the past 4, primarily working with sacramental preparation but also assisting with undergrad events, such as retreats and Theology Underground. I was very active at a Newman Center when I was in college. (Don't hold it against me, but I graduated from the U of A. I had good reasons that I'm happy to tell you about!) I studied journalism and political science and worked at a newspaper for 2 years after I graduated. Still, I felt God had other plans for me. Since my time as a student minister in college, I had felt called to serve in the church. I worked as a youth minister in a Phoenix parish for 3 years before taking some time away from ministry while I completed my master's degree in Theology. I love the rich traditions the Church offers, and I love to read and play a mean game of trivia. My husband, Brian, and I have a 3-year-old daughter who has taught us even more about the great love God has for us. It is my privilege to work with you, sharing my experience of God's love with you. I know God meets us right where we are and you will certainly find Him all around this holy place. So come on by, and let us get to know you! RetreatsRetreats help build community and provide deep spiritual experiences. Our New Student Getaway is the first retreat of the year for all new students. We also offer two undergrad retreats, one in the fall and one in the spring. Students travel up to Camp Tepeyac in Prescott and spend the weekend in prayer, activities, faith sharing, and reflection. You'll make friends for a lifetime! Intramural SportsIf you love to play sports, register to play intramural sports with the Newman Center. We’ll pay for the entrance fees! We’re also always looking for people to cheer our athletes on! Sports being offered this fall include Volleyball and Flag Football. During spring we participate in 5 on 5 Basketball, Soccer and Slow Pitch Softball. College Night
College Night is our flagship activity for college students. This event takes place once a week on Thursdays at 7pm during the school year, and incorporates both prayer and social activities. College Night is a great way to meet people and take a first step into involvement at the Newman Center. Table on the Mall
Weekdays during the school year, students staff a table in the middle of ASU’s campus. They provide information to interested students, faculty, and staff. Look for us this fall outside of the Danforth Chapel! Alternative Spring Break
Interested in doing something meaningful for your spring break? The Newman Center sends students on social justice based trips both within the United States and El Salvador. S.A.L.T.SALT is the Student Association Leadership Team. SALT members are the hands and feet that minister to our student community. SALT is a voluntary ministry that plans student prayer services, weekly fellowship, social justice, community service, intramural and other events that keep our Newman Center thriving. SALT is the place to grow into a passionate and faithful Catholic leader as you share your gifts with your community. Applications are now available for the 2009-10 School year. They are due on Friday, April 24, 2009 Click
