School of Community

Coleman-Morse 330 ~ 7:30-8:30 PM ~ Weekly on Wednesday

School of Community is an opportunity to compare the Church's proposal with our life in order to verify how faith responds to our heart's deepest longings in every aspect of life and deepen our awareness that "It is Christ that you seek when you dream of happiness; He is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you; He is the beauty to which you are so attracted..." (JPII). This semester we'll be reading The Religious Sense by Fr. Luigi Giussani together.

Many of us get dinner at SDH beforehand! For readings and updates, join our GroupMe. Organized by students in Communion and Liberation University (CLU).

Abide: Catholic Community Nights

Coleman-Morse Lounge ~ 8-9:15 PM ~ Weekly on Wednesday

Abide is an opportunity for Catholic students - or any student interested in exploring, questioning, or interested in Catholicism - to forge friendships in faith and grow together through praise and worship, a witness talk, small group discussions, and fellowship. Whether you're looking for deeper community or have doubts about your faith, we hope you'll join us.

Lewis Luce

Lewis Hall Chapel ~ 10-10:30 PM ~ Weekly on Monday

Every week, a new speaker will join us at this candlelit prayer service for a reading and personal reflection! Afterwards, stay to catch up over Rise'n'Roll Donuts!

Lucernarium

Sacred Heart Parish Center ~ 8-8:30 PM ~ Weekly on Thursday

"The Looch", as seminarians fondly call it, is a weekly evening candlelit service loosely based on the office of compline ("high bedtime prayers" is one description given to compline). This beautiful time of prayer is open to all students of the university! Stay after the service to socialize!

Saturdays with the Saints

Geddes Hall ~ 10:30 AM or 3:30 PM ~ Home Game Saturdays

Saturdays with the Saints has established itself as a popular Notre Dame football pregame ritual that combines the university's rich traditions of Catholic faith and spirited game days. Notre Dame theology faculty and McGrath Institute staff will deliver dynamic lectures on saints chosen for their uncommon virtue and their willingness to let their faith stand in contradiction to the wisdom of the world.

Visit the McGrath website for current dates!

EXALT: Adoration, Reflection, Praise & Worship

Various Hall Chapels ~ 7:30-9 PM ~ Monthly

Exalt is a monthly night of worship through music in the presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.  Each Exalt includes Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, a reflection offered by a member of our Notre Dame family, and praise and worship music offered by our Totus Tuus Band. Priests are on hand to celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and a student prayer team is present to pray one-on-one with interested students. All are welcome, no matter your previous experience with this style of worship.

Are you in the midst of making a big decision about your future? Perhaps you're considering an internship, career, religious vocation, or marriage? Join Campus Ministry for our monthly Sunday brunches as we hear from guest speakers about their discernment journeys and reflections on making big life decisions through a faith-based perspective! We will take some time to listen to their stories and share insights with one another.
