Whether you’re new to University Park, or have been attending Mass here for decades, please take a moment and register with us for the new 2025-26 Academic Year. This information is crucial to help justify our use of Penn State facilities (such as the Worship Hall in Pasquerilla for our weekend Masses). Our ministry also serves as your parish of record during your time here at the university, so it makes it easier for you to request that we attest to your regular participation should you be asked to become a godparent or sponsor in the future.
We need you to do three quick — well, two quick and one slightly not-as-quick — things:
Step 1
Register in our community’s Flocknote by clicking the button below or by texting PSU to 84576 and following the instructions. If you have already done this, please proceed to Step Two.
Please include all the requested information (Name, email, phone), and indicate whether you are a student, resident community member (i.e. non-student), and/or alumni. This system is how we will communicate with all the members of our community going forward. Also, please select any volunteer opportunities, groups, or activities in which you might be interested in participating. We always need more volunteers to help us celebrate weekend liturgies (especially Musicians, Lectors, Mass Coordinators, etc.).
Step 2
Fill out our ministry’s registration form by clicking the button below. Some information will be repeated (such as email/phone), but please also provide it here to make sure this more complete record of our community is complete. This information (such as fields of study, graduation years, etc.) is where we can get a more granular view of who we serve.
Step 3
Be sure to follow both our ministry’s Instagram (@psucatholic) to stay up-to-date with our schedule and ministry information, and our student Instagram (@psunewman) for upcoming Nittany Catholic student activities! (And, also, don’t forget to follow Fr. Joachim!)
