We at St. Edward's and the Newman Catholic Club welcome you to Granville, Licking County, and the Diocese of Columbus. We are glad that you are here, and we look forward to serving you! This fall, our main activities on campus are:
- Sunday Mass at Swasey Chapel at 6:00 p.m. with our Catholic chaplain, Fr. William Slattery, PhD, STL, presiding.
- Monday Food & Faith gatherings at Slayter from 7:30-8:15 p.m. We meet on the circle benches outside or on the 2nd floor for food and discussion of scripture and other topics related to growing in faith and holiness during college.
Fr. Slattery is also giving the 2023-2024 Catholic Lecture Series in Swasey Chapel on Sundays from 7:30-8:30 p.m. The theme is "Ultramodern Christianity in the light of Ultramodern Scientific Breakthroughs: Why It Can Revolutionize Worldview and Reenchant Lifestyle." Each lecture will be followed by questions and answers. Click here for a biography of Fr. Slattery and the complete schedule of lecture titles for the fall semester.
