Fun Facts about Joey:
Through eucharistic adoration, we encounter the real presence of our Lord. During this encounter, we are fully present with the physical being of Christ. This is an opportunity to give ourselves fully to Christ who meets us where we are.
Adoration is offered on campus every Wednesday in the Saint Joseph chapel from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
University Ministry also offers Awake Nights throughout the year. Awake Nights consist of a speaker and adoration. Each one has a unique speaker who shares insight for the first half hour. This is then followed by an hour of adoration. During adoration, praise is sung, along with many moments of silence with the Lord.

Masses need ministers to help with the parts of the mass. On campus, our students can be ministers in the areas of serving, greeting, reading, and ministering the Eucharist. If you are looking to help with the masses, we train liturgical ministers at the beginning of the school year, but you may be trained individually throughout the school year. This training is necessary for those looking to be servers, ministers of welcomes, readers, and Eucharistic Ministers of Holy Communion (EMHCs).
For more information contact Joey Garcia, and to be trained contact Scott McNamee.
Another ministry of the mass is music ministry through the sacred choir. Sacred Choir is a group of students that prepare the music for worship for all of our Campus Masses, an evening of prayer and song, and off-campus outings. These students gather on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons in the Bishop Chartrand Memorial Chapel from 3:30-4:45 p.m. to lift their hearts and voices to God in praise.
Sacred Choir is a one-credit course, but can be a half-credit or non-credit based on your schedule.
Welcome to students with any type of musical background.
