Campus ministry is primarily a peer ministry which is open to all students. It is led by a leadership team of twenty students under the direction of the Campus Minister. The particular work of campus ministry is to provide environment, inspiration and opportunity, enabling and encouraging students from every class to take steps towards hopeful and faith-filled spiritual growth as well as a generous response to those in need.

The spiritual development of Louisville students is paramount. Campus Ministry is the soul of Louisville, promoting an attitude of prayer and a spirit of openness. Campus Ministry fosters the mission and charism of Louisville High School beginning with morning prayer each day and culminating in a deeper realization of the call to action as Christians in a world in need.

Prayer

Prayer is encouraged at Louisville in many ways. The Morning Prayer is a long standing ritual at Louisville. Following the Pledge of Allegiance, the Morning Prayer is one of the moments in which the community fulfills its motto: “That all may be one.” The Morning Prayer follows a particular format that includes words and phrases from Louisville’s rich spiritual heritage. Yet, it is, every day unique since each original prayer is presented daily by a different member of the community, including all classes and faculty.

During Advent and Lent, Students “Come to the Chapel”… a call that has come to name early morning prayer led by members of the Campus Ministry Leadership Team. These prayer services are held before the first bell and are designed by the students to help prepare the community for the feasts of Christmas and Easter.

Campus Ministry Leadership Team

Since Campus Ministry is primarily student directed, the leadership of campus ministry is made up of students. The president of the entire organization of campus ministry is called “Student Body Campus Minister”, and is elected by the student body. She also serves as a member of the Associated Student Body Leadership Team. The remainder of the campus ministry student leaders are appointed and they include:
