Eligibility:
Catholic students, faculty, and staff of Eastern Illinois University; members of RCIA who have participated in the Rite of Welcome; others, i.e., recent grads who remain in the area for a time.

The Ministry:
It is the responsibility of each and every member to build up the community of faith on campus. This will be done by:

• participating actively in the Eucharistic Celebrations each weekend, and of course, for those so inclined, daily;

• being a member of a Small Community of Faith (SCF) that will meet weekly: 12 meetings each Academic Session - Fall/Spring;

• members of the Newman Community are expected to "take-a-step" financially each year toward the biblical goal of tithing.
