St. Thomas of Canterbury Nave
Welcome to Lutheran Episcopal Campus Ministry!
Campus Ministry
St.
Thomas of Canterbury had its origin as a Canterbury Club for students
at the University of New Mexico in 1947. Since that time,
an ongoing tradition of "outreach" has brought St. Thomas
to its present-day role as a mission-oriented parish. We still
have very strong ties with the University, and sponsor the Campus
Ministry.
Now A Joint Project of Luther
House and St. Thomas of Canterbury Episcopal Church!
There is a long history of cooperation between the Episcopal
Church USA and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, including
30 Lutheran Episcopal Campus Ministries around the country. Here
at UNM we have worked together for many years. Now we are beginning
shared ministry. Canterbury has the space and Luther House has the
staff person. Starting in the summer of 2010, the ministry is housed
at St. Thomas of Canterbury Episcopal Church and is served primarily
by Lutheran Campus Pastor Anne Morawski.
Lutheran Campus Ministry at UNM and CNM started in 1961. It is a
ministry of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the Rocky
Mountain Synod, and local congregations.
Programming
includes worship, bible study, local service projects, regional
retreats, national student gatherings, and service-learning opportunities.
Campus Ministry is an avenue for students, faculty, and staff from UNM and CNM to gather together for food, fun, and fellowship.
Who We Are
He said to them.... "Come and see." (John, 1:39)
A
typical meeting consists of a small meal and an open discussion
about school and life and theology. A Meditation Mass service begins
at 12:05 PM. The mass is followed by a light soup and salad lunch
and discussion.
Everyone is welcome! Meetings are held Wednesdays at 12:05p.m. at St. Thomas of Canterbury (425 University Blvd). We encourage openness and fellowship.
