Chaplaincy at VeritasNurturing Spiritual Growth and Faith in our Community
Welcome to the Chaplaincy Page of Veritas! Our chaplaincy is dedicated to supporting the spiritual life of our students, staff, and families. Through faith, prayer, and service, we strive to create a vibrant Catholic community where everyone is encouraged to grow in their relationship with God and one another.
Our Mission
To provide integral, holistic formation for students and staff through prayer, worship, and Gospel values. Rooted in Catholic teaching, we nurture faith, spiritual growth, and human dignity for all members of our university community
Our Vision
To form disciples of Christ who recognize their dignity as children of God and build a culture of love, compassion, and justice on campus and beyond
Our Philosophy
The Chaplaincy as the spiritual heart of Veritas, welcomes students and staff of all backgrounds - guiding them to explore their faith through prayer, reflection, discernment, and community service. Guided by Scripture and Catholic tradition we offer worship, pastoral care, and counseling — integrating academic pursuit with personal growth in truth and purpose. In all helping students learn not only how to make a living, but how to live in society
