  • The University Church Brochure
    THE UNIVERSITY CHURCH “When you put it all together, what is a Jesuit education all about? It is about nothing less than empowerment and transformation. And this is the way in which the transformation takes place: Cared for, our students are challenged. Challenged, they awaken to their real potential. Awakened, they are transformed. Transformed, they are empowered. Empowered, they emerge from their experience at the University as recognizable Jesuit graduates: They are men and women of competence, conscience, compassion, and commitment to the cause of the human family. They become men and women with a difference—and men and women who make a difference in the world.” — JOSEPH M. MCSHANE, S.J., PRESIDENT, FORDHAM UNIVERSITY Welcome TO THE UNIVERSITY CHURCH, THE VERY CENTER OF FORDHAM’S SPIRITUAL AND INTELLECTUAL LIFE SINCE ITS BEGINNING. Archbishop John Hughes built this house of prayer where the Lord has made His home for more than a century and a half. So great was his love for this church that, in 1845, when the stained-glass windows that Louis Philippe I, the King of France, donated to Old St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Mulberry Street turned out to be the wrong size for that cathedral, Archbishop Hughes had them installed in the modest church that he built on the campus of St. John’s College. I am sure that Anthony Kohlmann, S.J., the founder and first rector of Old St. Patrick’s Cathedral, would be pleased that Archbishop Hughes’ gift bore—and continues to bear—witness to the mutual love and respect that has always existed between the Society of Jesus and the Church of New York.
