New Way to Support Us!
We have a new way to support us. We are a member of ParishPay. It will allow our supporters to either continue giving one time donations, or to pledge monthly through the website. Look towards the bottom of the page for a link!

If you are interested in helping us improve the physical aspect of our Newman Center (i.e. chapel, library, lounges), or help improve spiritual programs offered to students (i.e. retreats, Bible studies, faith-formation classes, liturgical ministries), please contact Father Brownsey, Father Lucas, or Mike Schaefer at 309-674-0208 or by email at fatherbrownsey@bradleynewman.org, frkevinlucas@gmail.com, or mike.schaefer@bradleynewman.org.
