Proclaiming God’s Provident Love to the world.
Inspired by the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, Campus Ministry at the University of Providence aims to form our students as whole and integrated persons, prepared to live out their faith and respond to the needs of others with compassion.
Celebrating the richness of our identity as a Roman Catholic university, Campus Ministry fosters the active sacramental life of our campus community while inviting students to personal and spiritual growth through reflection, faith formation, fellowship, service, and retreats. Inspired by the heritage and spirituality of the Sisters of Providence we proclaim Providence as the loving presence of God, made present to the world in and through us.
Ever mindful that all persons are made in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:27) Campus Ministry programming is open to all students, regardless of faith tradition or life situation.

WE ARE A COMMUNITY OF STUDENT LEADERS
PSL is a community of UP students with a shared interest in personal growth and service to others. As a result of the need to have the time to grow in community, PSL is a multi-year commitment.
GROWING SPIRITUALLY IN FORMATION
Open to University of Providence students of all faiths, PSL seeks to form young people in the Charism and spirituality of the Providence Community through intentional spiritual formation, leadership development, and communal experiences of service.
BUILDING STUDENT EXPERIENCES
Students who successfully complete their initial year of “intensive formation” in PSL will be officially elevated to the rank of Providence Servant Leader, and serve the University community for the remainder of their time in the program as “peer ministers” in Campus Ministry service projects, service trips, worship, fellowship, and retreat programming.
WORKING FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE
As a continuation of the saving work of Jesus Christ, PSL seeks to develop in its members a loving concern for the poor and vulnerable and a desire to build of the Kingdom of God on earth through the promotion of a more just society.
