Modeling the Parable of the Good Samaritan, the Marian University Peer Ministers will serve the Marian University community being present. Peer Ministers will meet the Marian University community where they are at and accompany others as they seek God.

  1. Have “office hours” during the week at a public place on campus
  2. Attend Marian University events
  3. Recruit and manage one small faith-sharing group that meets once/twice a month.
  4. Available to listen
"Whenever we encounter another person in love, we learn something new about God."

Small Faith-Sharing Groups

Small Groups are student led opportunities to connect with peers, to share faith, discuss relevant issues, support one another, and build an intentional community. Some themes include scripture, prayer, fellowship, women of faith, men of faith, and pop culture.

Small group leaders meet Marian University students wherever they are in their journey of faith. Participants develop a deeper relationship with Jesus, as they grow personally and learn they are not alone as they face struggles and celebrate success.

To sign up fill out this form or talk to Kenneth Fallon.

"You will learn so much about yourself, your peers, and your relationship with God"
