Bishop celebrates Mass at Catholic Campus Ministry Center

HALEDON  Bishop Serratelli celebrated Mass for the 27th Sunday in Ordinary Time Oct. 4 on the campus of William Paterson University (WPU) at the Prince of Peace Chapel and the Bishop Rodimer Catholic Campus Ministry Center here.

Many students at William Paterson, who participate in campus ministry activities, attended the Mass, which was followed by a question and answer session with the Bishop. The Catholic campus ministry at the college offers Bible study, Eucha­ristic Adoration, Con­fession, R.C.I.A. instructions, and social activities in addition to service opportunities for WPU students.

Its website states that “Jesus Christ, Prince of Peace Chapel and the Bishop Rodimer Catholic Campus Ministry Center exist to serve the students, faculty and staff of William Paterson University. It is a welcoming place of faith, hope and love and seeks to help people encounter Christ Jesus, crucified and Risen, during their college years. In knowing and loving Christ Jesus we become more fully the person God meant us to be. During one’s college years, when one is exploring and coming into their own person, we seek to help them reach their greatest potential through the helping and healing hands of Jesus.”
