The Newman Catholic Association is a student-run Catholic organization that serves the Lafayette community and city of Easton, Pennsylvania.

Chaplain: Father Alexander Brown
Campus Minister: Zelenda Hodgskin

Although primarily a Catholic organization, Newman Association welcomes individuals of all religions. Newman offers a wide range of activities from which students can choose their involvement, including:

  • Sunday Mass, 5pm in Colton Chapel led by our Catholic Chaplain Father Alexander Brown. Students serve as lectors, Eucharistic ministers, altar servers, music ministry, etc.
  • Confession is available on Sunday from 4pm-4:45pm *or by appointment during the week*
  • Adoration is offered every Tuesday night in the Leopards Lair downstairs in Farinon from 7:45pm-8:15pm and on Friday in Colton Chapel from 4:30-5pm.
  • Newman Meeting every Tuesday night after adoration in Colton Chapel. Meetings take place from 7pm-8pm.  Students spend time in fellowship while sharing a meal and discussing the Catholic faith. These meetings give students a chance to stay connected to their faith while away at college.
  • Weekday Mass, 3:45pm-4:30pm (Friday) in Colton Chapel led by Chaplain Father Alexander Brown
  • Service opportunities that offer students a chance to connect with the Easton community (SafeHarbor, Catholic Charities, etc.).
  • Social events throughout the year.
  • Stations of the Cross *during Lent* Colton Chapel
  • Candle lit mass in December
  • *Note to our visitors*  Parking is available below Colton Chapel on South College Dr.
