Campus Ministry

Welcome to Campus Ministry!

A community where you can explore your faith, learn about justice, and deepen your relationship with God.

We invite you to GO F.A.R. with Campus Ministry by participating in our programs and ministries surrounding Faith, Action, and Reflection. Rooted in the Fordham University Catholic, Jesuit identity, Campus Ministry accompanies students of all spiritual backgrounds in their own personal growth. Our initiatives will engage your heart and mind as you explore what you believe and discover how that informs who you hope to become.

We are a community where people of all faith traditions are welcome. Whether you are Catholic, Jewish, Hindu, Orthodox, Christian, Muslim or exploring, we invite you to one of the many Campus Ministry events we offer throughout the year and explore one of the many clubs and organizations that call Campus Ministry home.
