History

Bloomsburg University Campus Ministry, under the Diocese of Harrisburg, serves the Catholic students and faculty at Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania. Although it does not have a specific founding date listed, it has been an integral part of the university's spiritual life for many years, providing a space for Catholic worship, community, and service.[1]

The Campus Ministry operates from the Newman House, located at 353 East 2nd Street, which acts as a hub for Catholic activities on campus. This ministry is supported by the Diocese of Harrisburg's Office for Youth & Young Adult Ministry, which helps coordinate Catholic campus ministries across the diocese's colleges and universities.[2]

Activities at the Bloomsburg University Campus Ministry include regular Masses, prayer groups, Bible studies, retreats, and community service projects. The ministry also offers pastoral care and spiritual guidance for students navigating the challenges of college life. Campus ministers and chaplains from the diocese work to create a community environment that supports the spiritual and personal development of young Catholics.[3]

The ministry has been led by various chaplains over the years, with Father Andrew P. St. Hilaire serving as the Director of Campus Ministry since June 2022. His leadership has focused on fostering a sense of community and missionary discipleship among students.[4]
