Campus Ministry Finds New Home

Campus Ministry, College of Saint Mary’s center for spiritual life and faith development, has moved from Walsh Hall to a new home in the Hixson-Lied Commons, across from the Student Leadership and Organizations offices and adjacent to Christina’s Place.

“Our new location allows students to drop in between classes to visit with friends and enjoy a snack,” said director Vickie Zobrist. “Students also come for counseling, mentoring and pastoral support to navigate tough times and difficult decisions. There is no judgment here.”

Student-led service clubs also operate out of the new digs. A group recently traveled to Kentucky to repair substandard housing and another will visit Milwaukee in the fall to serve the homeless in soup kitchens and shelters. 

“We go to learn their stories. We’re there to be a ministry of presence. This is what building a community of faith is all about,” Zobrist said.
