As our collegiate church, St. Basil’s serves as a place of encounter with God and other people for both the USMC and parish community. Through St. Basil’s and the care of the Basilian fathers, students receive the Sacraments and are given opportunities to participate in a variety of community service projects.

Founded in 1922 by the Newman Club, the Newman Centre serves Catholic students on the University of Toronto campus with a variety of meetings and social events. USMC Campus Ministry and the Newman Centre frequently collaborate with one another to organize retreats, the faith and reason lecture series, and opportunities to encounter Christ through Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.

As a Catholic university, USMC is an important part of the Archdiocese of Toronto. The Archdiocese takes an active interest in the university and works to support its student life community, including Campus Ministry. Through USMC Campus Ministry, students participate in Archdiocesan events such as Lectio Divina, retreats, conferences and community outreach programs.

The Office of Catholic Youth is focused on cultivating relationships with and providing support to those who minister to young people in the parish communities within the Archdiocese of Toronto. USMC Campus Ministry looks to the OCY as a support base for forming the USMC student community into Christian leaders who come to know Christ, deepen their relationship with Him, and are transformed into intentional disciples.
