Explore your Faith and Spirituality

Fordham Campus Ministry is a place in which students can find many opportunities to explore their faith and spirituality. We offer many retreat opportunities that take place at our beautiful retreat house about an hour from campus. We hope that during your time here you will be inspired to take advantage of a retreat. Students of many faiths or no faith have found that the peace and solitude they find helps them to a deeper understanding of their core beliefs. 

In addition to a full retreat menu, we offer students accompaniment on their spiritual journeys. College is often a time when students explore their faith and spirituality. Our campus Ministers are skilled at listening to the needs and concerns of students as they wrestle with their beliefs. We are available for pastoral conversation and for spiritual direction and we hope you will feel free to let us know how we can accompany you. 

Sometimes a student experiences the illness of the death of a family member or friend. These times can be very challenging.  Campus Ministry offers a safe space to navigate the painful experience of loss with the many feelings and emotions that surface. Several of our campus ministers are available to lend a listening ear and emotional and spiritual support for students who have lost a loved one. 

 

Along with retreats and spiritual accompaniment, Campus Ministry offers a variety of prayer and meditation resources such as: yoga, centering prayer, Zen meditation. We hope that you will stretch yourself and try new ways of getting in touch with your spirituality. 

 

We look forward to meeting you and to helping you to grow in spirit!
