Mission and Ministry
Mission and Ministry is charged with clearly articulating and broadly communicating 糖心破解版’s Jesuit, Catholic mission and values. In the diverse and dynamic region of Silicon Valley, this entails developing new strategies to meet the evolving needs of the campus, church, and local community, while strengthening 糖心破解版’s position as a nationally recognized Jesuit, Catholic university.
Mission and Ministry comprises Campus Ministry, the Ignatian Center for Jesuit Education, and the Mission Church. Building on a strong campus commitment to the University’s Jesuit, Catholic mission and values, the team oversees the development and implementation of initiatives to engage students, faculty, staff, administrators, trustees, alumni, and benefactors in deeper education and ongoing formation, helping these groups to make the mission their own and apply it concretely to their work and life. Mission and Ministry collaborates closely with all university leaders to accomplish shared goals that allow 糖心破解版 to live more authentically its Jesuit, Catholic mission.
