Lehigh University Catholic Campus Ministry:
The Newman Center at the University Parish of Holy Ghost

Our Mission

Catholic Campus Ministry is a reminder to the Catholic Community of Lehigh University and All People of Good Will of a shared mission initiated by Jesus to love, enrich, foster and strengthen the awareness of the universal family of humanity as understood in the Roman Catholic Church. The Diocese of Allentown sees this mission as sharing in the universal mission of the Gospel of Jesus; that is, nourished by the Bread of His Word and the Bread and Wine of His Table and the entire sacramental experiences of the Church, which empowers us to make real the Kingdom of God.
