Student Spirituality
University Ministry offers experiences rooted in the Ignatian tradition that ignite your imagination, cultivate your creativity, examine your spiritual depth, and invite you to explore who you are at your core.
Reflect, engage, and rejuvenate on a University Ministry retreat. Retreats vary from one to five days.
Discover weekly student mass at St. Ignatius Church and intimate worship services in residence halls.
Indigenous Freedom of Traditional Prayer
University Ministry's mission is to support the spiritual, religious, and pastoral needs of the USF community. This includes access to "ceremonial forms of prayer that are crucial for students and their spiritual well being on this campus." Thus, ASUSF, with support from University Ministry, and this office's intent to make a reality, passed the Indigenous Freedom of Traditional Prayer for all Indigenous students on campus.
