Rochester Institute of Technology

A message from Catholic Newman Community at RIT

The Center for Religious Life is more than a campus facility or building. It is a place – and space – for quiet prayer and community laughter, of meditation and pizza dinners, of choral concerts or students playing guitars, or just hanging out to play the pianos in the chapels. It is a place of personal and community exploration within the diverse and rich religious, cultural, and spiritual traditions of our campus community.  You are welcome here! All are welcome here! Each day and each week individuals, communities, and congregations gather in this place to study or talk, worship and pray, visit, and share. Students come into the chapel to pray or stop in the chaplains’ offices to visit, or just find a quiet place to think and reflect.
