Meet our Ministers
Our commitment is primarily one of accompaniment that is often referred to, or experienced as, a ministry of presence. We prioritize the relationships we form with our students and colleagues as we strive to accompany them in their lives and in their work. We build and support programs that integrate faith and justice, worship and reflection, sacraments and service, academics and communal life; especially those that emphasize evangelization and reconciliation. In this way we hope to support people and programs to enrich the life and faith of the LMU community. To connect with our offices, please contact us or visit us at our administrative suite on the Westchester (main) campus.
