A message from St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Student Center

St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Student Center is a vibrant, welcoming community serving the students of Valparaiso University and our local families. We strive to provide a life-changing encounter with Christ as we CONNECT, GROW, and SERVE. During the academic year, St. Teresa's is open from 8:00am to 11:00pm, providing a great setting to pray in our perpetual adoration chapel, to study in one of our many spaces, or to hang out with friends while playing games, ping pong, pool, and more!

Please join us for our Sunday 5pm Student Mass with a free, homestyle meal to follow, where you can enjoy great food, drinks, and conversation. We also offer many regular Bible Studies, Fall and Spring Retreats, weekly Cafe Manna soup kitchen, monthly Service Saturdays, a Spring Break Mission Trip or Pilgrimage, weekly Tuesday night socials at our Newman Night after 8pm Mass, and more! FUN---FUN--FUN There is so much to choose from--we know we have something you will enjoy. If you think of something else you'd like to see at St. Teresa's, let us know! God Bless!
