Campus Ministry
The mission of Campus Ministry is the development of the spiritual life of all the members of the campus community in order to serve Christ in all walks of life and to live in communion as the Body of Christ. The academic life of campus seeks an understanding of the world and each person’s responsibility to work for justice. Campus Ministry at Carroll College encourages all members of the campus community to integrate in their decisions a personal discernment of God’s will for their life. At the heart of our programs and events is the discernment of how God is calling each person to live their own life in union with Christ’s gift of His life and share in both ministry and service. Especially through the celebration of the Eucharist, our campus community seeks to know God’s will and live according to God’s will.
Carroll’s Campus Ministry team includes the chaplain/director of Campus Ministry and two assistant directors of campus ministry programs, student interns, and peer ministers. The Campus Ministry team is committed to respect all as their brother or sister in Christ. This means an ecumenical ministry that respects the real communion between all Christians and all who sincerely seek God as well as respects the religious liberty of all.
