Philosophy of Campus Ministry

Campus Minster: Mr. Joseph M. Colarossi

 
 
 

During their high school years, our students will be given the opportunity to develop and experience a deeper relationship with their God and the realization of a responsibility to prayer and action, as is found in our Catholic social teachings. Campus Ministry animates and encourages the whole John Carroll Catholic Family to grow in holiness through worship, retreats, community building, and service. Like St. Francis of Assisi, Campus Ministry serves as a reminder of the importance of cultivating a mindfulness of the presence of God in our everyday lives. We are called as a school/faith community; "to preach often and when necessary use words." St. Francis of Assisi

Prayer of St. Francis before the Crucifix

Most high, and glorious God, enlighten the darkness of my heart and give me , lord, a correct faith, a certain hope, a perfect charity, sense and knowledge, so that I may carry out your Holy and true command.
