Our Mission is Jesus
We are on a mission to form a Catholic Christian community by showing a personal interest in each student and leading him and her to encounter Jesus Christ and to serve Him.
For over 50 years, Holy Spirit Parish has served the University of Kentucky as a dynamic and vibrant church community. The Catholic Newman Center gives Catholic Wildcats a physical and spiritual home—a place to belong, to grow in faith, and to challenge themselves to live out the Gospel message.

Form Community
Community is the bedrock of the Christian life. It’s in a community that saints are made. Our vision is to have a vibrant, growing community that edifies every student who walks through our doors and equips him or her to leave the University of Kentucky as a disciple of Christ. We want every student on campus to know who we are, what we do, and how he or she can be part of our community.

Encounter Christ
Christianity is primarily about a relationship with a person – Jesus Christ. We can grow that relationship by encountering Him in the Sacraments, in His Word, and through encounters with other disciples. Here at Newman, we provide settings of all types for the Holy Spirit lead our students to fall in love with Him!
