Newman Ministry

Over 80% of students leave the faith in college. Joining campus ministry in college is often the last thing on a student's mind. They face distraction after distraction, forget to connect, and lose their way.

Campus ministers are in a tough spot, too. With few resources and no assurance that students connect, outreach becomes a game of "needle in a haystack."

That's where Newman Connection comes in. We exist to connect students with a Catholic community on campus so their faith thrives in college and beyond. This happens in two ways:

Faith Forward, our national movement, is a simple-to-implement program that connects high school seniors to campus ministries at their college or military of choice (before they get to campus or base). Newman Connection's mission team also offers training, coaching, and community to help campus ministry leaders grow and do better ministry.

Newman Connection ensures high school seniors keep their faith in college and the military, and campus ministers are equipped to inspire lifelong disciples.
