For many years, there has been a presence of Catholic campus ministry at Wayne State University and University of Michigan-Dearborn. Detroit Catholic Campus Ministry seeks to continue this good work and look ahead to how we can continue to do so in new and exciting ways. This year, the previously separate campus ministry programs at each campus are now united as Detroit Catholic Campus Ministry to better serve both campuses while also being more accessible to the other local colleges and universities. It is one program at two locations.
Our campus ministry program exists to evangelize college students so that they might know the salvation offered in Christ to each one of them through the Church that Jesus has founded. We also seek to be an epicenter for Catholic cultural renewal so that students might more fully discover the beauty of the Catholic life through experiencing joyful community life while also engaging with the intellectual tradition of the Church.
Campuses served:
Wayne State University
University of Michigan-Dearborn
College for Creative Studies
Henry Ford College
Students from other local colleges and universities are invited to join us as well!
