Campus Ministry

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me. . ." 

The Office of Campus Ministry at the University of Dallas seeks and trusts in the Wisdom and power of the Spirit of God, who, through the humanity and divinity of Jesus Christ, calls us to become a community of faith. As a Eucharist-centered community, we strive for spiritual, intellectual, and moral development of all our members, so that together we can work for justice and peace while preparing students as effective leaders in church and society. In the spirit of true ecumenism, we welcome students of all faith traditions to participate as fully as possible in all our prayer and programming. We have much to learn from each other.

Currently Located on the 2nd floor of SB Hall (rooms 254A-D), the Campus Ministry Office is always open, and anyone is welcome, either to talk to one of our staff members or to just relax and enjoy a snack.

Campus Ministry also offers a variety of activities and other ways for students to get involved in the University of Dallas community. From Men's Society to Blessed is She to FOCUS Bible Studies to volunteer opportunities throughout the University and Dallas area communities, there is something for everyone. We also offer all students a free weekly dinner through our Open Anselm ministry! For more information regarding Campus Ministry activities, see our Programs page.
