Welcome to Vandal Catholic! We look forward with great anticipation to greeting you when you arrive on campus!
We’re blessed to have a large staff who all care deeply about our mission and are working hard to continue to support it. We’re busy planning for Fall Outreach and have a year full of a variety of opportunities for people to grow in their faith in God and to gather in prayer. It’s a simple formula, truly, but one that is the difference between life and death. We’ll have a mixture of opportunities for building community, such as BBQs and hikes; building an understanding of faith, such as monthly lectures by Dr. Gracjan and Bible studies; and building a relationship with God, such as Adoration and retreats. I’m excited to say that we’ll be using an internationally acclaimed program for evangelization of those who are not religious called Alpha. Beginning the first Wednesday of September and ending before Thanksgiving, Alpha is a program that offers small group discussions on life’s important questions. Anyone, student or otherwise, at all interested in the Catholic faith, or faith in general, is invited to attend.
As we move forward, please be assured that health safety is a top priority. In coming weeks, more information and details about opportunities for our parish and campus ministry will follow. There are an abundance of ways to get involved, grow in your own faith, and give back through service. Everyone has a place, and for the greatest chance for success, the old nautical saying applies: All hands on deck!
May God bless and keep you,
Fr. Chase Hasenoehrl Pastor
St. Augustine’s Catholic Center
