My faith has grown through my participation in Campus Ministry. I have a bigger hunger to know God and to help others. As a peer minister, I reach out to other students and invite them to participate in their own way and at their own pace. There’s no pressure — it’s about building your personal faith.

Growing in faith is an indispensable part of your experience at USF. Through personal and communal prayer, we help students encounter the person of Christ, so their lives may be shaped by Him.
Welcome to our new St. Francis Chapel, located in the heart of campus.
At USF, Mass is considered to be sacred time and the university has formally established it as such. Sacred Time is a daily “pause” which takes place whenever Mass is celebrated on campus. No on-campus university-sponsored activities can be scheduled. This gives all members of the community the opportunity to participate in Mass or to engage in personal prayer.
“Sacred Time has been fantastic. You take some time, speak to God and just bask in the presence.
