Faith Woven Into Everyday Life

Faith at JSerra is intentionally integrated into the student experience through prayer, sacraments, retreats, theology, mentorship, service, and community life. Students encounter opportunities for spiritual growth not only in formal programs, but also in classrooms, friendships, athletics, the arts, and everyday campus interactions. 

We offer regular occasions for students to grow and develop the virtues necessary for personal and Christian maturity.

- Pat Reidy, Vice President of Mission and Faith

 

Sacramental Life

The sacramental life of the Church remains central to the rhythm of campus life through daily Mass, weekly all-school liturgies, Eucharistic Adoration, Confession, and communal prayer opportunities throughout the year.

 

Theology That Engages Both Heart and Mind

JSerra encourages students to wrestle with meaningful questions about truth, beauty, morality, vocation, suffering, purpose, and the relationship between faith and culture.

 

Mentorship & Spiritual Guidance

Students are surrounded by adults who walk with them personally and spiritually, including faculty mentors, coaches, chaplains, campus ministers, and the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist.
