Easter Renewal Spring Appeal 2024 - $15,000 Matching Challenge!
Our Annual Easter Renewal Matching Challenge begins April 7th and will go through Tuesday, April 30th. We are grateful for the generosity of a few benefactors who have made possible a $15,000 matching challenge.
Would you please prayerfully consider making a meaningful gift to the Lord to help us change lives?
As we celebrate the triumph of life over death, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for your steadfast support and partnership in our mission at the St. Thomas More Catholic Newman Center. Your generosity has played a pivotal role in enabling us to sow seeds of faith and love that continue to bear abundant fruit in the lives of our students and beyond.
Through your support, in this school year alone, we will have welcomed over 320 students to our Bible studies, provided one-on-one mentorship to more than 100 individuals, and received 25 into the Church through Baptism, and Confirmation. These encounters with souls and the deepening of relationships with Christ are central to our mission and are tangible examples of the challange we’ve all ben given by Bishop Barron to evangelize. Since 2009, over 20 of our students have responded to the call to discern the priesthood or religious life, while almost 400 have embarked on missions to spread the Gospel far and wide.
But the impact of your support extends beyond mere numbers. Our students go out after gratuating, building lives, families and communities rooted in faith and leadership. Your investment in our ministry not only empowers future leaders of the Church but also fosters a deep relationship with Christ that extends far beyond our campus, echoing Bishop Barron's call to spread the Good News to all corners of the earth.
As we look ahead with hope and anticipation, I invite you to continue journeying with us in our mission of spreading the love and truth of Christ through your prayers and financial support. Your partnership is indispensable. And thanks to the support of two very generous benefactors, your gifts will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $15,000 from April 7th through April 30th. Thank you for your unwavering support and prayers.
May the joy of Easter fill your hearts with boundless hope and renewal!
Why support the Newman Center?
Newman Centers were created to provide a place for students at public universities to also receive a Catholic education. While we may not be offering traditional classroom settings, assigning homework, or giving tests, we are educating students in their faith with an authentic Catholic worldview and how to encounter every soul with the heart of Jesus. We offer countless Bible studies, world-renowned Catholic speakers, retreats, conferences, discipleship programs, mission trips, community nights, charitable work, RCIA, and, of course, a place for the students to come and worship the Lord in daily Mass and Adoration. The mission of the Newman Center is deeply rooted in the Sacraments and is the launching point for young people into their parishes and communities.
The Newman Center isn't only a place for students to come for Sunday Mass, it is a home away from home. A place where they are encountering Jesus in an authentic way and building Christ-centered friendships.
The St. Thomas More Newman Center is where students’ hearts, minds, and souls are being transformed for Jesus Christ and His Church.
