All students are welcome to join the UNC Newman Catholic Community. There are many ways to get connected and invest in your faith. For more information, contact Kevin O’Reilly, Newman's Associate Director of Campus Ministry, at [email protected]. Or fill out the College Student Digital Contact Card.
Congratulations on getting into Carolina! The Newman Catholic Community serves all UNC students, faculty, staff, and residents of the greater Chapel Hill area, and we have much to offer UNC students. Join us each Sunday afternoon at 4:00 PM for our College Student Mass and each Wednesday at 6:15 PM for Carolina Catholic Night!
CCN happens every Wednesday at 6:15 pm in the Newman Activity Center. Each week features a dynamic keynote speaker, an interactive game, a live worship band, and a delicious homemade meal. Come out to meet some new students, worship together, and eat something other than dining hall food!
SFGs meet weekly throughout campus at various times and locations. Joining an SFG is a great opportunity to meet other students in a smaller setting to grow in fellowship and faith. Each week students gather to reflect on and discuss the upcoming Sunday Gospel reading from the Bible. This is a great way to make new friends and strengthen your faith together! Sign up for an SFG by contacting Kevin O’Reilly at [email protected]. It is never too late to join!
UNC students have the very fulfilling opportunity to teach catechesis for the children and youth of Newman’s permanent community members. This includes leading retreats, discipleship, small faith groups, service opportunities, and more with children in grades K-12. Please contact Matthew Irwin, Newman’s Pastoral Associate for Catechesis, for more information at [email protected].
Newman offers a number of local service options in Chapel Hill and Carrboro, alternative break trips all over the United States, and other opportunities to serve your community here and abroad throughout the year.
