  • Junipero Serra's motto “Siempre Adelante” Always Forward is what we are living at this time.  Recent events have made it necessary that we shift our focus for continuing the Christian Service Journey. 


Note: Please see the other campus ministry pages for more details on retreats and Christian service.
 

Prayer

Here at Serra you will find students, faculty, staff, & parents in prayer together. Families pray together, and we are no exception. In addition to the prayer and faith instilled by our faculty, campus ministry aims to provide our students opportunities to grow in their prayer life.
Families pray for one another. Please let us pray with and for you by clicking here.
 
 

Mass

You may be familiar with the line "A family that prays together stays together". These words from Fr. Patrick Peyton are words that hold true for us here at Serra. Every month we gather as a Serra community to celebrate our faith with one another.

Adoration

Between classes, projects, homework, clubs, sports, and the numerous opportunities on campus, it is important that we make some time for quiet. In Adoration, we make this quiet time intentional and prayerful. It is another opportunity for our students to work on their interior lives.
