Testimonials

A look back...

Former students share the impact of the Newman Center.

"The Newman Center changed my life in a way that I never thought it could. I came to college sealed and confused then I found the center and it helped me find 
my path as well as my faith. Now, I have friends that will last a time and a faith that I can continue to grow with others after college.

I came to lake state not knowing what to expect from college, and did not have a direction of what I truly wanted out of my time in school. I ended up coming to the Newman center, and it gave me direction and ultimately defined my time at Lake State. It offered me a great community of people who shared my values, opened my mind, and became my closest friends. The Newman center was key in my faith formation, but was also a haven and home away from home for me throughout a busy student schedule. I am grateful I had a chance to serve and be served by a beautiful student ministry community. I left LSSU knowing I had a full and fruitful college experience thanks the the Newman Center.

The Newman Center is a place that the students of LSSU can come to find a community of incredibly caring and genuine people. I have found  lifelong friends through the Newman Center. I am able 
to find my way as an adult solely because of God and the people at the Newman Center. Being able to live out my faith in harmony with my academic career is such a blessing. I want this opportunity to remain open for many years to come because I am living proof of the success of our group. The Newman Center is built on responsibility, truth and faith. We strive to learn more through our academics and synthesize it all through
our faith.

Community service events offered by the center allow students to take part and have an impact in the community. It allows us to connect with the parish and interact with members of Sault Sainte Marie that we may otherwise may not have otherwise met. Volunteering also gets us to spread our time, talents and mission of the Newman Center. 
-Josh
Social events are an awesome opportunity to grow in fellowship. It is supportive and open environment where everyone can speak freely and be themselves! It is a chance for everyone to relax, get closer to one another and overall have a fun time after the hectic school week. It also lets people who cannot join us for weekly program connect up with fellow Catholics.

Retreats have been a regular part of my college career here at LSSU. They help me refocus on God in the middle of the semester when I really need it. I am thankful for the relationships I have made with students Northern Michigan University and Michigan Tech University as well as the opportunity to grow closer to those from the Newman Center without the stressors and distractions of school. Those who host the retreats do a great job, and help me grow in faith and see God from a different perspective.
