CAMPUS MINISTRY

At AMU, our students’ spiritual welfare is our top priority. The Holy Eucharist and the Sacrament of Confession were given to us by Our Lord so that we may stay close to him and save our souls. That’s why we ensure that as a student at AMU, you’ll be able to attend daily Mass and frequent confession as often as you like.

Ave Maria University is exceptionally blessed to offer students Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament 24 hours a day. Located in the east wing of AMU’s Canizaro Library and immediately across Ave Maria Boulevard from the Oratory, the Martha J. Burke Adoration Chapel is a place to find peace, joy and love in the Eucharistic presence of our Savior.

For information on the summer adoration schedule and how to sign up, please contact the Ave Maria Parish Office

Each year at AMU we offer two primary retreats for our students following the themes ENCOUNTER and TRANSFORM. On the fall retreat, you’ll discover or rediscover a living relationship with Christ; on the spring retreat, you’ll focus on nurturing that relationship and allowing the love of Christ to transform your life.
