Saint Paul's Outreach

Catholic Faith Alive on Campus

“The best instrument to evangelize young people is other young people.” (Pope Francis)

The Need

There are many people in need of Christ, but college students are more spiritually vulnerable than any other group. College campuses are battlegrounds for the minds and souls of our young people, and many are leaving the Church. Only 10% of Catholic millennials attend Sunday Mass. Students are hungry for truth and meaning, but most are not being reached effectively.

The Response

Saint Paul's Outreach (SPO) engages these students and shows them the way to abundant life in Christ and His Church. We build evangelistic communities that provide a unique quality and depth of formation in the Catholic faith and life. SPO Missionaries labor tirelessly to provide the environments and opportunities for encounters with Christ and actively invite students to a life of Christian discipleship. We do this with a mission that is grounded in a deep faith witnessed to and lived in COMMUNITY.  This entails a comprehensive process of outreach, faith formation, and mobilization in mission and leadership.  

The Result

Our ministry has produced thousands of alumni who are passionate followers of Christ and who continue to shine His light in the world long after they have graduated. They are thoroughly formed and renewing the Church by evangelizing the culture by becoming missionaries and leaders in the Church, in the home, and in the marketplace, transforming their environments for Christ.
