Campus Ministry
You have been told what is good,
and what the Lord requires of you:
Only to do justice and to love goodness,
and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah 6:8)
Campus Ministry works with the Theology Department and the entire school to explore the deepest questions in the hearts of our young men as well as our faculty and staff. We provide a variety of opportunities to learn about the Catholic faith and to deepen our relationship with and understanding of God and so be of service to others, bringing our Holy Ghost Prep “brotherhood” to life. HGP’s Campus Ministers are Fr. Daniel S. Sormani, C.S.Sp., the Spiritan Chaplain and Hearts on Fire Moderator; Mr. Joe Dembik, Religion Chairperson and Director of Retreats; and Mr. John Fitzpatrick of the Theology Department; joined in ministry by many faculty, staff, and students.
