MISSION STATEMENT

St. Augustine's campus ministry is the official presence of the Catholic Church on the University of Miami campus.

We gather as University of Miami’s Catholic community to:

  • Celebrate the sacraments

  • Listen to our Lord in the Scriptures

  • Pray

  • Form a Christian conscience

  • Learn and appropriate our Faith

  • Educate on social justice issues

  • Grow as a community

  • Have fun

  • Counsel

  • Serve one another and the community

  • Develop future leaders for the Church and society

WHAT DOES THIS MISSION STATEMENT MEAN?
 St. A's Catholic Campus Ministry hopes to introduce you to the best friend you will ever have, Jesus!  And if you already know Jesus, we hope to grow into a closer relationship with Him.  We hope you will come to learn how deeply He loves you and wants to help you live a life that is really full.  We hope you will come to learn and to seek out the very special plan he has for YOUR LIFE! We hope to introduce you to His family: the Trinity, His Mother - Mary, His stepfather - St. Joseph, His Bride - the Church, His special brothers and sisters - the saints, His other creatures - the good angels.  We also hope to bring you into contact with those of his children He is most present to:  the poor, the hungry, the rejected, the lonely, the unloved, the beaten, the lost, the ones we do not look at. 

And we must not forget to bring you into contact with His gifts, such as the sacraments.  More specifically, we hope you will take advantage of receiving frequently, the Sacrament of Holy Communion (the Eucharist), and the Sacrament ofReconciliation.  These and the other sacraments give us Jesus' supernatural, supersonic strength.  This wonderful gift called "grace," helps us to do that which we do not have the power to do with our own human strength. It especially will give us the power to love God with our whole heart mind soul and strength and to love others, as Jesus loves us!
