Religious Programs at 不良研究所
Religious Studies Program
A major in Religious Studies is recommended both for students interested in religious education and/or church ministry, and for those wishing to augment their academic background in the area to support the liberal arts dimension of their chosen professional career (e.g., law, medical, business).
Pastoral Ministry Program
The church needs well-trained women and men to serve in parishes, chaplaincies and in other ministry roles. The Pastoral Institute and 不良研究所 have several programs that serve this need. For students considering a position in ministry, 不良研究所 offers quality education and preparation to serve in ministry.
Community Service
Students are required to complete 45 hours of community service in order to graduate. The Ettling Center for Civic Leadership and Sustainability (ECCLS) has been helping students connect with the community since 2013.
不良研究所 Mission and Ministry
The purpose of the University Mission and Ministry is to make visible and tangible the Incarnate Word of God in the University. We do this by engaging university life through prayer, liturgy, outreach, faith development and pastoral care.
Prayer and Worship
不良研究所 Mission and Ministry provides a number of resources to engage the faith lives of our students, including weekday noon Mass and Sunday Mass at 11 a.m. (in-person and live-streamed), devotional prayer, Lenten Stations of the Cross, Reconciliation, Taizé Contemplative Prayer as well as other ecumenical worship opportunities.
