Create Community

Create Community with Campus Ministry!

If you are interested in any of the programs listed below, send an email to campusministry@scranton.edu to receive alerts including times and locations.

Bible Study

We read Gospel and then the Gospel reads us!

This weekly gathering of students is an opportunity to reflect on and discuss how the upcoming Gospel reading for Mass on Sunday speaks to us in our everyday lives.  Participants learn how to approach Scripture with both head and heart and are challenged to “get out of the way” and let God’s Word speak to them.

Bible Study will begin February 21, 2024 at 8:00 PM. It will be held in the Campus Ministry Conference Room located in The DeNaples Center, Room 200. Any questions, please contact Patty Pivirotto via email or at 570-941-5458.

Candlelight Meditation

Find peace in the middle of a hectic week.

Unwind while listening to a reflective meditation followed by snacks and fellowship! Usually held in Sacred Heart Chapel.

Praise and Worship (PAW)

This is a student run group that gathers and enjoys Faith, Friendship, Song and Relaxation. Meetings are held on Thursday evening at 9 PM in the Montrone Multipurpose Room. Please contact Cara Galli or Jenna Kotlar for any questions or to be added to the email list. All are welcome!
