Welcome, friends & alumni!

Walk with USI students on their journeys of faith through community engagement, networking events, and the ongoing support and development of our community’s ministry and mission. We’d love to hear from you! Get Connected with the form below.

Who We Are

  • Eagle Catholic is the University of Southern Indiana’s Catholic Campus Ministry and Newman Community (we don’t call ourselves a “Newman Center” because we don’t have a physical building on campus— yet!). Visiting campus? Stop by our office in the Recreation, Fitness and Wellness Center!

  • FOCUS Missionaries are part of the ministry team with a simple focus: Make disciples for Christ. USI is blessed with 4 young adult missionaries who invite people into a relationship with Jesus in the Catholic Church. Then, they accompany them and ultimately equip them to share their faith with others too. Support a FOCUS Missionary here!

Pray for our students

A Novena to St. John Henry Newman

Almighty God and Father, we give You thanks for blessing the Church with the witness of Saint John Henry Newman, through whom shines Your fatherly care, the Truth of Jesus Christ, and the Spirit of conversion.

In him You have given us an example of trust in Your divine Providence and the intercession of the Virgin Mary. In him You have raised up a holy example of fidelity to the timeless teachings of Holy Mother Church.

With a special love for Catholic education, and due warning against the errors of relativism, Your servant John Henry Newman is a shining example for our times.

Grant us we beseech You, through his intercession, and according to Your holy will, the renewal of faithful Catholic education and fidelity to the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church through Christ our Lord. Amen.
