Campus Ministry

Ohio Dominican's Campus Ministry Office plans and participates in many activities geared toward promoting spirituality among students and providing opportunities for community outreach.

Students are presented with the opportunity to make a difference in the community by attending monthly service outings to the Mid-Ohio Food Bank; organizing blanket drives for homeless families; and participating in the annual Christmas toy drive for needy children.

Getting involved in Campus Ministry allows you to participate in a variety of spiritual growth experiences, including men's and women's prayer and bible study groups.

In addition to experiencing an environment where students can build their faith, being involved in Campus Ministry also provides students with the opportunity to build lifelong friendships with others who share their own values and morals.
