A Flourishing Center of Catholic Ministry at the University of Nebraska

Current Total: $9,852,020

The Newman Center is a spiritual "home-away-from home" for thousands of university students. Wonderful ministries and programs draw students to the Newman Center in unprecedented numbers. More than 2,000 students are actively involved in our regular ministries, yet our church only seats 325. There are more than 6,000 Catholic students on campus. The Newman Center is a place to find the peace, ritual and comfort of their faith. For college students at a critical juncture in their lives, the Newman Center provides an opportunity to be actively engaged in their Catholic faith through: Liturgy & Music, Evangelization & Catechesis, Community & Fellowship, Service & Mission.
