St. John Catholic Campus Outreach - Angelo State

To help college aged students get to know Christ through the Catholic Church in our community that gathers here at the Newman Center.

We serve college aged students in the San Angelo area. We have a Registered Student Organization for Angelo State University and we strive to do outreach on the ASU and Howard College campuses. We offer Masses, Holy hours, Confessions, free meals, and opportunities for faith formation and fellowship. Weekly Bible studies are scheduled throughout the week, and if anyone is interested in becoming Catholic or simply learning about the Catholic faith, there are opportunities to go to RCIA or meet Father Freddy for questions and discussion.

Testimonials

"Over the past year I became more involved in the ASU Newman Center. It has become a home for me when I didn't feel at home anywhere else. The priest , the FOCUS missionaries, and the community of students uplifted and encouraged me when I needed it most, and given me the priceless opportunity of doing the same for others. The Newman Center gives many students a support system that they otherwise wouldn't have, for this reason alone the Newman Center is invaluable. That is only a small portion of the much larger ministry. With the continued growth and development of the Newman Center in mind, it is safe to say that we are experiencing the beginning of a new era of Catholicism on campus and and Christ in our lives. Personally, I'm excited to see what plans God has for us." -Levai Dehoyos, a senior engineering student at Angelo State University

"I was brought to the Newman Center by my sister. I looked like a puppy being dragged by its owner to the bath. I didn't want to be there. However, now I go every day. When you're at the Newman Center, you'll always meet someone new or learn new things." -Cole Bordner, freshman
