What happens when a young person walks onto a new college campus and finds a community that shares their faith? For Anna, it meant finding friendships that helped her grow closer to God and a Newman Club that became like a second family. blog.newmanconnection.org/fi…

Catholic saints have some seriously spooky stories. 👻 But here's what matters most: God is more powerful than every demon, every darkness, and everything that tries to stand against Him. The saints knew where to turn. So can we. Learn more: bit.ly/SaintSearch-TW

"Be not afraid.” St. John Paul II reminded generations of young people that God is calling them to something greater. That same spirit drives us to help students find a true home for their faith. Join the Faith Forward movement: bit.ly/faith-forward-movemen…

What happens when a student finds a Catholic community that meets them where they are? At George Mason, one student went from feeling lukewarm in his faith to becoming deeply involved. You can help make more stories like his possible. Donate: bit.ly/donate-newmanconnecti…

You can’t go to every Mass with your student. That’s okay. We asked our Newman staff for some of their favorite ways parents can stay supportive without hovering. Join the Faith Forward movement and help connect your student with a Catholic community. bit.ly/faith-forward-movemen…

Campus ministry understood the assignment. If you’re in high school and thinking about college, don’t just think about your major. Think about where you’ll find your people, grow in your faith, & maybe some free dinner. We can help you get connected: bit.ly/connect-me-x

Morgan came to Kansas State with “little to no direction in my faith.” By her sophomore year, she wanted more. Then a friend invited her to Mass at St Isidore’s. “Immediately, I felt at home.” That’s what Faith Forward is all about. Read Morgan’s story: blog.newmanconnection.org/mo…

“Just come once. I promise you’ll have fun.” One invitation can lead to new friends, a stronger faith, and a Catholic community that feels like home. That’s why we make sure young Catholics have someone to invite them into their next Catholic community: bit.ly/connect-me-x

What does it actually take to help a college freshman stay connected to their faith? This fall, our Campus Ministry Partners gave us a closer look at what happens after a student is reached, and what helps turn that first connection into real community. blog.newmanconnection.org/wh…

This is why we believe in Faith Forward. At @TAMU, a Newman Connection partner, students are exploring the Catholic faith through OCIA. Their stories remind us that a Catholic community can make all the difference. Keep them moving Faith Forward. bit.ly/donate-newmanconnecti…

If you’re in college and not connected to a Catholic community, you’re missing out. 👀 Your people are already there. Join in on grabbing food, laughing way too hard, growing in their faith, and making memories. Go find them. Get connected: bit.ly/connect-me-x
