Campus Ministers and Chaplains live in residence halls to support students, partner with the residential life staff, foster spiritual growth, provide counsel and conversation, and build community.  We also have Campus Ministers who serve as liaisons to communities who do not have a live-in minister.  Meet our Resident Ministers, Chaplains, and Campus Ministry liaisons through the drop-down tabs below.

Our student peer ministers are leaders within the community who volunteer their time to provide additional opportunities to connect peers with one another and Fordham’s mission of service, spirituality, and social justice.  Our Peer Ministers facilitate small communities called GroupChats on a variety of themes (i.e. Women’s, Social Justice, First-Year & Transfer Students, etc.) and also offer programs such as Meditation and Movement, presence hours for drop-in conversation, service and justice projects, and much more!  If you are interested in learning about Peer Ministry programs or joining a GroupChat community, please contact [email protected]. If you’d like to learn more about serving as a Peer Minister, contact Erin Hoffman ([email protected]).  We seek to represent all the faiths and spiritual backgrounds of our Fordham Ramily!
 

Here is a sampling of some of the programs CM and Res Life have put together:

If you have an idea you’d like to partner with Campus Ministry to bring to life in the residence halls, please contact your building liaison.  Commuter students can contact Gil Severiano, [email protected].

Many of the residence halls have Catholic Mass offered weekly, biweekly, or monthly.  The schedule will vary so check with your Priest-in-Residence.
