"For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead."
- James 2:26
There are many different opportunities within the Newman Center where you can get involved. Check out a few of the opportunities below... Any questions? Please don't hesitate to ask the contact provided.
RCIA Sponsors
Our Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults program (RCIA) is growing in numbers and we need more and more sponsors.
Pope Francis said that all Christians are called to share their faith with others – Evangelization. Here is a wonderful opportunity to share your faith.
All you need is to be an active Catholic interested in sharing your faith with others. If you are interested please contact our Director of RCIA, Charles Arokiasamy at rcia@csufnewman.com.
Liturgical Ministries
If you are interested in serving as a Eucharistic Minister, lector, altar server, greeter or usher, please contact the office at 436-3434 or Karl Gurney at karl@csufnewman.com.
Altar Linen Care
We are in need of a few individuals to help with altar linens. Duties include picking up the linens from the Newman Center, washing, drying, and ironing the linens, and returning them to the sacristy. Contact Jenna at jenna@csufnewman.com or call 436-3434 if you are interested in helping.
Communion to the Homebound
Pastoral Care Ministry is a ministry for those wishing to bring communion to the homebound and hospitalized members of the parish. If you are interested in this ministry please contact Deacon Bill Lucido at 436-3434 or bill@csufnewman.com.
College Dinners
We serve a meal to hungry college students every Wednesday night during the fall and spring semesters. Would you be willing to provide a main dish (serves 10-12), salad, dessert, OR sodas once a month? (All items must be store bought or from a restaurant due to Covid-19 restrictions). We are also in need of several volunteers to take turns helping with set up, serving the meal, and clean up afterward. If you are interested in helping with this ministry contact us at catholicclub@csufnewman.com.
Catholic Charities Truck
On the third weekend of the month, we have the Catholic Charities Truck in our East Parking Lot to collect donations for the Catholic Charities thrift store. Volunteers are needed before and after all Masses. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact the office at 436-3434 or ncoffice@csufnewman.com.
