Father Tom's Vision for UMDNJ's Catholic Campus Ministry

The establishment of a lecture series open to students and faculty. To learn, listen and to discuss spirituality as another means of healing.

To be invited by faculty of the Schools of UMDNJ to visit and address students on the importance of spirituality for themselves and their future patients. Father Tom has already been invited to be on a panel with doctors to speak to first year medical students about the importance of clergy and pastoral care in caring for the total need of the patient.

To establish an interfaith ministry to provide a healthy spirituality center for faculty and students. A place where those in the medical profession can see science and religion working together.

To provide counsel to those students and faculty who may be struggling with personal or professional issues in their lives.

To establish a Reflection / Meditation room in the school. A quiet place, with a welcoming environment for persons of all faiths who may seek a place to pray, think, or do spiritual reading.
