  • Notre Dame-Newman Centre for Faith and Reason — The organizing vision for the Notre Dame-Newman Centre for Faith & Reason is to create a space, a community really, in which a lively and intellectually rigorous engagement of faith and culture will occur in a spirit of civil engagement with modernity inspired by the example of Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman, who built the Church that is our home. We hope through beautiful liturgy, inspiring preaching, and planned lectures and concerts to show that the faith in general and the Catholic faith in particular remain vital lenses for seeing all of human reality with clarity. We hope to build a community of informed and inquiring believers who are able to seek the truth with confidence and vigor, to speak the truth in love, and to integrate faith into their worldview, their work, and their engagement with culture.
