Find God in all things.

Not just the chapel. The dining hall at midnight. The dorm room with the door propped open. The office hours that turned into something else entirely.

St. Ignatius believed God was already at work everywhere on campus. Campus ministers spend their days helping students see it.

CCMA exists so you are not doing that alone.

Happy feast day. St. Ignatius of Loyola, pray for us.

You pour into your students week after week, showing up, listening, praying, carrying more than anyone sees.

But who's pouring into you?

Campus ministry is holy work, and it's heavy work. Limited time. Student mental health. Building missionary discipleship. Leadership transitions. Budget realities. You're navigating all of it, often alone.

You don't have to.

CCMA exists to connect you to a national community of campus ministers, form you with practical resources for the daily work, and equip you with tools, best practices, and peer support you can count on.

We see you. We're here to help.

Summer in campus ministry isn't an off-season. It's a different kind of season.
We asked campus ministers across the country how they're spending these months, and their answers tell a story: book clubs and beach days. Retreats and fishing trips. Cruises with friends and strategic planning for the fall. Reading voraciously for pleasure and for growth.

The thread running through it all? Rest isn't the opposite of ministry. It's how energy and excitement find a place to root before students return.

Swipe through to hear from ministers at UT Arlington, Texas Southern, Towson, and Indiana University and tell us in the comments: how are you spending your summer?

Pope Leo XIV's first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas, is about artificial intelligence and the human person and it never mentions campus ministry. But it speaks directly to it.

Our students are being formed right now by algorithms, by loneliness, by questions no one has named for them yet. The Pope describes a pivotal choice facing humanity, and our students are living inside it whether they have words for it or not. Showing up for them is one of the ways the Church meets them there.

Our Executive Director Rosie Chinea Shawver unpacks what Magnifica Humanitas means for campus ministry. Read it, then go be present to your students.

Strong campus ministers. Students led to Christ. That's the mission.

CCMA is the accompaniment in college campus ministry and we exist to elevate the profession so more campus ministers feel empowered to be successful on campuses.

Engage. Link. Equip. Value. Advocate. Teach. Establish.

"Just as Christ gives himself as food in the Eucharistic celebration, the procession shows that he is not confined to the church, but comes out to meet us. Jesus travels the streets, crosses the squares and visits our neighborhoods, dwelling in the settings of our daily lives. He is a God who is close to us, who walks with his people, the Lord of history. He is comfort to the weak, light for families, hope for the sick and peace for those who suffer. The Christ who processes through the streets in the monstrance is the same one who identifies with the poor, the downtrodden, those who are alone and forsaken"

- Pope Leo
