Student Spotlight

Each month we highlight a student whose faith has been strengthened through the Newman Center. This month, we are excited to feature Therese.

Therese Rivard is a junior at NDSU studying Graphic Design. She is from Bloomington, MN and was a transfer student this year. Here is what Therese wanted to share with you:

"The Newman Center was a huge part of why I chose to move to NDSU. It’s been like a home away from home and has helped me find a smaller, faith-filled community on a campus that’s much bigger than where I transferred from. I especially love being able to walk down to the chapel from my apartment any time of the day or night!"

Congrats, Graduates!

On graduation day we were blessed to send our grads and their families off with a breakfast and Mass just before the ceremony at NDSU. Twenty-six grads and their families were able to attend - what a gift! Check out some of the highlights below.

Counting our blessings!

Thank you for your support! Because you believe in the difference campus ministry makes, students at NDSU are encountering the living God. Without your support, our student leaders wouldn't have the tools they need to evangelize their peers. To say thank you to all their hard work over the school year, we hosted our annual student leader appreciation dinner and dance before the end of the semester. It was a great evening to see all the students and hear them share how God is working in their lives.
