They work under the guidance of the chaplain to develop, organize, and present the majority of the activities throughout the year. Men’s and Women’s Groups The St. Therese Women’s Group and the St. John Men’s Group both are a way to explore your faith at a deeper level with people who probably have some of the same questions, confusions, and intentions as you. We grow closer to God and each other through fellowship, service, and prayer. “Blow the trumpet in Zion, sound the alarm on my holy mountain! Let all who dwell in the land tremble, for the day of the Lord is coming.” -Joel 2:1 Newman Choir Come be a part of the rejoicing that goes on every week! Singers and instrumentalists alike are always wel- come for both the 11am and 5pm Masses and practices are Wednesday nights. The music is is always tailored to the readings and liturgical seasons and has lots of variety. As is welcome with all Newman activities, come with your ideas, strategies, and enthusiasm. 5 FOCUS Fellowship of Catholic University Students places missionaries on campuses all over the country. We are lucky to be a part of the FOCUS program that leads Bible studies and whose mission is to invite college students into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church, inspire and equip them for a life- time of Christ-centered evangelization, disci- pleship, and friendship in which they lead others to do the same. St. Vincent de Paul Outreach Program Our service leaders are fantastic about connect- ing students with service opportunities in the Tulsa area. Students can volunteer weekly at a site, participate in large-group outreach days, or contribute in any other way that fits their sched- uled. No car? No problem. We always organize a carpool from Newman to each event. Making sure we are all part of a team that helps each other and those around us is vital. Liturgical Team The student community is a huge part of the Mass at Newman. Getting trained to be a Lector, Extraordinary minister of Holy Com- munion, Usher, Server, or Sacristan is simple and a great way to be more involved in the Mass, become more intimate with the Lord, and be around other students and commu- nity members who share your faith. Intramural Sports TU’s intramural sports leagues are unlike any other! Face off against halls, greeks, and other campus groups for the championship title! Newman has teams for flag football, basketball, volleyball, and more. Starting a new team is easy and a marvelous way to stay active while bonding with other Newmanites. 6 Some of the Usual Some of our usual semester activites-- we’ll always have an updated calendar on our website! Chaplain Office Hours: Some- times, you just need to speak to a priest. We have a full-time chaplain just for that reason. Drop by or simply touch base with Father Kerry to organize a time.

    7601 VINE • LINCOLN, NEBRASKA 68505 ST. JOHN THE APOSTLE “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” And when He said this, He breathed on them and said to them: “Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven…” (John 20:21—23) THE SPIRIT AND THE CHURCH IN THE LAST DAYS The Meaning of Pentecost…(from Catechism of the Catholic Church) 731 On the day of Pentecost when the seven weeks of Easter had come to an end, Christ's Passover is fulfilled in the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, manifested, given, and communicated as a divine person: of his fullness, Christ, the Lord, pours out the Spirit in abundance.[Cf. Acts 2:3336][2623,767,1302] 732 On that day, the Holy Trinity is fully revealed. Since that day, the Kingdom announced by Christ has been open to those who believe in him: in the humility of the flesh and in faith, they already share in the communion of the Holy Trinity. By his coming, which never ceases, the Holy Spirit causes the world to enter into the "last days," the time of the Church, the Kingdom already inherited though not yet consummated. [244,672] We have seen the true Light, we have received the heavenly Spirit, we have found the true faith: we adore the indivisible Trinity, who has saved us.[Byzantine liturgy, Pentecost Ves- pers, Troparion, repeated after communion] 696FireNOne of the Symbols of the Holy Spirit: While water signifies birth and the fruitfulness of life given in the Holy Spirit, fire symbolizes the transforming energy of the Holy Spirit's actions.

  • Guide to Ministry Commitment for 2016-2017
    GUIDE TO MINISTRY COMMITMENT FOR 2016-2017 LITURGICAL MINISTRIES The Eucharistic Liturgy is the source and summit of Catholic life. All members of God’s Holy Church are called to active participation in the Mass. Please consider participating in one of the following ministries that are integral to our worship. ALTAR SERVER: This ministry is open to all parishioners 4th grade and older. Servers assist the presiding priest in the processional, setting and clearing the altar and holding the Roman Missal for prayers. You will receive training for this ministry and will serve with an experienced server initially. EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS: Eucharistic ministers are parishioners who have been confirmed and have been commissioned to distribute Holy Communion at Mass. Eucharistic Ministers are required to attend a training session before being scheduled. LECTORS: Newman Center parishioners who are high school age or older and have been confirmed may serve as Lectors. These men and women proclaim the Word of God at Mass and other liturgical celebrations. Lectors are required to attend a training session before being scheduled. LITURGY COORDINATORS: Liturgy Coordinators ensure that everything necessary for Mass is set up and in place before Mass begins. Coordinators recruit additional ministers as needed for Mass and assist where needed during Mass. Coordinators are also responsible for making sure that items are properly cleaned and stored after Mass. You will receive training for this ministry and will shadow an experienced coordinator before you do this on your own. MUSIC MINISTRY/CHOIR: At each Mass choir members lead the congregational singing and individual cantors are recruited from the choir.

  • The Newman Center at Muhlenberg College
    The Newman Center at Muhlenberg College 26 August 2020 Transverberation of the Heart of St. Teresa of Ávila Dear students, faculty, staff, and friends of the Catholic community at Muhlenberg College, Know that you are all in my prayers during these difficult times. I know that the coronavirus pandemic has caused many difficulties for everyone within our community. I am remembering especially in my prayers the Graduating Class of 2020, who were made to miss many memorable moments due to the precautions that the pandemic forced us to take, and our all of our new students joining the Muhlenberg family this year, especially the Graduating Class of 2024, whose first semester will be something quite different than they were likely expecting college life to be. I am writing to give you all an update on what Catholic Campus Ministry’s plans are for the coming semester. Due to the precautions that the College has put in place for the safety of all involved, most especially our students, things will look a little different during the Fall 2020 academic semester than what we are used to experiencing as part of Catholic life at Muhlenberg College. Nonetheless, my hope is that all involved with Catholic Campus ministry will help all of the Catholic members of the Muhlenberg community experience a vibrant Catholic life during these difficult times. As such, please see the following points related to Catholic life at Muhlenberg College this semester. MASS Unfortunately, the policies that the College has implemented to safeguard the health of our community, combined with the liturgical law of the Catholic Church, make it difficult to offer Mass on campus this semester, at least for the foreseeable future.
