We encourage students to build community, to deepen their faith, to engage in service, to seek justice and to become leaders formed by Mercy. The Center for Spiritual Life enhances the University’s mission to provide an educational experience that is personally transformative and is committed to making manifest God’s love and Mercy to all.

In collaboration with the professional staff of the Center for Spiritual Life, students meet weekly to plan a variety of events, engage in service, reflect and pray together or simply take a break from hectic schedules. Student leaders of Mercy in Motion receive an opportunity for leadership training in the Mercy tradition.

It is furnished with comfortable chairs and couches, a large screen TV, a kitchen which students can use to cook and bake, and plenty of space to relax, study and be with friends.
