Campus Ministry

Care for the Entire Person

Have you heard the term cura personalis? It’s not just another old Latin phrase here at Saint Louis University. It’s an expression that forms the core of how we nurture spiritual life in our SLU community.

Read below for more information on how Campus Ministry achieves this at SLU.

New to SLU? New to Campus Ministry?

  • Join us from 5:30-6:30 p.m., every Wednesday in Wuller Hall for community nights: prayer, games, faith-sharing, and building community with students across campus.
  • Registration is open for the 2025 Connections Retreat, November 17-19, 2023 at Manresa Retreat Center. How do experiences with others make us whole? SLU Campus Ministry's Connections Retreat offers space to consider this question and time to cultivate our call to authentic relationships in all areas of our lives - with friends, family, romantic partners, and ourselves, sponsored by the SLU Department of Campus Ministry. Cost is $25; contact Julia Erdlen at julia.erdlen@slu.edu or Becca Muder at becca.muder@slu.edu.
    Connections Retreat Registration

Student ministers who have been trained usually participate in the Sunday Masses at 4:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. in College Church. Fill out this interest form to be contacted about liturgical minister training for SLU student and University Masses.
  • If you are musically inclined (or wish you were), consider joining our award-winning Mass Choir. SLU's student Mass Choir provides the music for the 4:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. Masses on Sunday at College Church. Our musical selections follow the spirit of the readings for each week with an eclectic mix of traditional hymns, contemporary Christian music and choral arrangements. We welcome any SLU student (undergraduate, graduate, alumni) who enjoys making music and is open to our church setting to sing and play with us. Contact Choir Director Sally Iocca or fill out this interest form to have someone contact you with more information about the choir. Check out a sample of some of our songs on the SLU Campus Ministry YouTube Channel.
