ABOUT NEWMAN HOUSE
Newman House is the home of the Catholic Chaplaincy at Queen’s University and exists to connect students with a faith-based community where students can come to grow spiritually with providing daily mass and a place of prayer while remaining welcoming to anyone who wishes to learn about the faith. The house also serves as a great place for students to just come and relax or socialize with others in a house close to campus.
Newman House is named after John Henry Newman, a distinguished Anglican minister who left the English church to join Catholicism and later became a cardinal. Many university campuses throughout Canada have a Catholic Chaplaincy house named after (now Blessed) Cardinal Newman.
Weekday Masses at Newman House (192 Frontenac St., across from Goodes Hall) is Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday at 11:45am and Thursdays at 5:30pm. The Rosary is also prayed daily by students at 5:30pm every day accept Thursdays.

New to Kingston? Looking for a parish community? Meet on the steps of Victoria Hall on Sundays at 10am and 7pm and we’ll head over to St. Mary’s Cathedral together. Join the masses for Mass. After mass, stick around for free hot chocolate and Timbits.
CATHOLIC CHRISTIAN OUTREACH
Throughout the university school year the chaplaincy puts on events with the university organization Catholic Christian Outreach (CCO). CCO is a “university student movement dedicated to evangelization” working to educate university students about the Catholic Faith through weekly faith studies and regular student events. If you are interested in possibly getting involved in a faith study, would like to find out more or would just like someone to talk to and ask questions about religion feel free to contact any of our missionaries, their emails can be found on the Missionary Page.
