“…I am able to network with other students who share my faith and drive to keep an active faith life."~Nikki Zeitzmann SUNY Canton '18
"For me, Newman Club is about the community. It was hard to find other believers when I came to college. The weekly meetings, dinners, and retreats are so fun and encouraging! It's great to find other college students interested in growing in their faith these four years. I've felt right at home since I joined my freshman year." ~Shaina Gormley SLU '20
"I joined Newman Club because my faith has always been a central part of my life. When I first arrived, freshmen year, whenever I felt stressed or homesick, it was nice to have the consistancy of the Catholic Church. Many of the people I met freshmen year through Newman Club, I am still really close with."
~Anna Padovani SLU '16
"I joined Newman Club because I wanted to learn more about my faith, meet fellow Laurentians who have similar beliefs, and to be active on campus and throughout the St. Lawrence community. I really like the Newman Club because it's a relaxed environment where I can be myself, ask questions, learn about my faith and have fun with other SLU students! Other people will like campus ministry if they are looking to be involved with the Canton community, take part in exciting events on and off campus, and if they are looking to expand their knowledge of the Catholic faith." ~Morgan Jackson SLU '14
“Newman Club allows you to continue, or start to grow your Catholic faith; the ability to do this during College is what drew me to the club." ~Matthew Heath SLU '16
"I have always had great faith in our God before attending SLU, but I must say that it continues to grow even greater every day that I spend on campus. The Newman Club and the Catholic Campus ministry has given me a special group of tightly-knit friends that have a common love for Jesus as well as passion to share it with others.”
~Corinne Niekrewicz SLU ‘15
“I joined campus ministry because I wanted to have some sort of group to be able to be open with about my faith and have discussions about the Catholic religion with. I wanted to form friendships with other people my age who also share similar beliefs as me. I am SO glad I joined and have made several very close friends along the way which I am very thankful for! I absolutely love campus ministry! :)"
~Stephanie Kustos SLU ’16
"It's hard to live a life of faith and virtue, unless you have friends who are trying to do the same. The Newman Club surrounds you with St Lawrence University Catholics, who will love, support and strengthen you, and your Catholic Faith." ~ Tom Donohue SLU '16
"I joined Newman Club because I like that we, as college students, can express our thoughts and ask questions about the Catholic faith. Many topics which we have discussed so far have been topics that I was interested in, but never asked questions about because I never felt comfortable enough to; and being in the same age group helps us be a faithful family with the same interest and no judgment."
