Confirmation Class for 2010

Please call the office immediately if you wish to be part of the Confirmation class this year.
Confirmation is the sacrament whereby the Holy Spirit fills us with the gifts we need to be people of strong faith. The Catechism of the Catholic Church says that Confirmation roots us more deeply in our identity as God’s children, unites us more firmly with Christ, increases in us the gifts of the Holy Spirit, binds us more closely to the Church, and gives us special strength to bear witness to our faith (#1303). Why pass up the opportunity to come to a fuller experience of God’s love and grace? Every Catholic should be confirmed. The sacrament is, in a sense, a completion of our Baptism. If you are not confirmed, please call or email Fr. Matthew (865-4281). The process is very simple and we will schedule the time of the meetings around the schedules of all the interested parties. God bless you all!

Student Faith Center

Student Faith Center (Architect's Rendering)There is a display in the lobby with information about our future building. We especially need the support of our alumni and parents with this project because our “parishioners,” the students, are not in a position to be able to give a great deal financially. We have images of the Student Faith Center on all of our literature for the school year, e.g., schedules, brochures, and leaflets. This is a tremendous opportunity to provide a “Catholic” home on campus for all future Penn Staters. Please keep us and this project in your prayers. May God bless and keep you all.
—Fr. Matthew

Take a virtual tour of the proposed building or get donation information.

Interested in Becoming Catholic?

Are you simply curious about our faith?
Do you know someone who is interested in becoming Catholic?
Do you want to increase your knowledge of Catholicism?

If so, please contact Fr. Matthew in the Campus Ministry office. Contact Fr. Matthew. Meetings are every Wednesday from 6:30–8pm, but other arrangements can be made. Please don’t let a schedule conflict become an obstacle. Through the grace of God we welcomed over 19 young adults into the Church last year! We’d love to have another BIG year! Also, if you are Catholic but have not yet been confirmed and you would like to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation, please call the office.
