The Catholic College of the South
Join us every Friday evening from 7:00-9:00 pm at Holy Grounds Coffee Shop on the beautiful campus of Belmont Abbey College. All ages and skill levels are welcome. The focus of this jam is building confidence while gaining familiarity with the (mostly) bluegrass repertoire. You’ll play a mixture of bluegrass and folk, with some gospel, country, and Irish. The jam also references the Queen City Bluegrass Jam songbook. Please note that while the location given is Holy Grounds Coffee Shop, and this will remain normative going forward unless otherwise noted, we will also meet in front of the adjacent Haid theater once the weather gets cooler. Contact Stephen Tomlinson with any questions at stephentomlinson@bac.edu.
Awake the Dawn is a new program on campus for students who wish to take their faith to a deeper level. It is designed for students who need more but don’t know where to find it. The group will meet and discuss current topics of the faith from contemporary theologians. The goal is to encounter what is pertinent in the world of theology and to become part of the conversation. Awake the Dawn will meet every Friday at 8 p.m. in the Mezzanine.
Every first Saturday of the month at 10:15am, pray the Rosary and offer a Communion of Reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Refreshments on the piazza to follow Mass.
If you have ever wondered about God, the Catholic Church, or faith in general, I invite you to join us for OCIA, the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults. Meetings occur every Sunday from 8:45-9:45 pm in the Mezz.There is no commitment to join the Catholic Church. The only requirement is to be respectful of other students as they learn about the God who loves them. This is also a great opportunity for Catholics who might never have fully learned their faith. We will cover an extremely wide variety of faith topics and will also have time at the end for questions. If you are a Catholic who has not yet received the sacrament of Confirmation, know that your Church calls you to receive this important sacrament. It is one of the sacraments of initiation and as such is indispensable for living your Catholic faith fully.
