Campus Ministry Leadership & Programs

Campus Ministry Council realizes the mission of Jesus Christ within our school community. The core aspect of CMC is student leadership. Campus Ministry includes a group of student leaders who strive to realize the mission of Jesus Christ within our school community. These young women offer their peers opportunities for prayer, worship, service, and social justice. With a focus on Fr. Jordan Awareness Week, Advent, Lent, and Catholic Schools Week, the Campus Ministry student leaders aim to bring students’ faith to life. Campus Ministry Council also elects the leaders and coordinators for each of DSHA's retreats, and helps to plan and coordinate various service, prayer, and worship opportunities throughout the year. These positions allow girls to nurture growth in each of the DSHA Qualities of a Graduate, particularly as believers, communicators, and leaders.
