<p>Catholic Campus Ministry assists the 10,000 Catholic students and employees at Penn State in nurturing their faith through daily and weekend liturgies, retreats, service and social justice projects, prayer and faith sharing groups and organizations such as the Newman Catholic Student Association.</p> <p>For those preparing to join the Church, Campus Ministry provides the opportunity to learn about the faith in the company of a warm and supportive community through the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults. In Addition, Catholic discerning a religious vocation has the support and guidance of ordained clergy and professional staff.</p> <p>We encourage you to become a regular member of the Catholic campus community by registering with us at a Mass one of the first few weekends of school. Similar to the process of registering at a parish, registering with the campus ministry helps us keep in touch with Catholics on campus and allows for us to issue a certificate should you be asked to be a sponsor for Baptism or Confirmation.</p>
