INTELLECTUAL AND SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT 
“I want the intellectual layman to be religious and the devout ecclesiastic to be intellectual.” - - Saint John Henry Newman

​With respect to the role of the Catholic Church in a University,
St. John Henry Newman wrote: “Here, then, I conceive is the object of the Holy See and the Catholic Church in setting up Universities; it is to reunite things which were in the beginning joined together by God,
and have been put asunder by man... I wish the intellect to range with utmost freedom, and religion to enjoy an equal freedom but
what I am stipulating for is that they should be found in one
​and the same place, and exemplified in the same persons…
...I want the intellectual layman to be religious and the devout ecclesiastic to be intellectual."

LECTURES

With our Faith and Reason Lecture Series, we attempt to bring to life Saint John Henry Newman’s desire to integrate faith and reason on the University Campus.  Cardinal Newman strived to work towards forming his students not only intellectually but also spiritually. He challenged his students and reminded them that faith without reason and vice versa is meaningless.

RETREATS

We invite some of the best spiritual leaders to lead two annual retreats at Newman Centre. Our past retreat directors include Fr. Jacques Philippe (seen above), Mother Miriam of the Lamb of God, Cardinal Gerald Lacroix and many more. Watch past retreats on our YouTube Channel, but nothing beats the live experience of a spiritual retreat. We hope you can join us for our future retreats!

SOCIALS

Our amazingly friendly student groups don't need an excuse to organize socials - Sign up to a Picture Perfect Social with the Newman Catholic Students' Club or Coffee House Talent Nights, or ​our semi-formal dances.
​Our weekly Pray & Play nights, monthly Bible Parallel Projects, Faith Studies, and much more are a huge hit. Get to know new people and make new friends.
