Religious Groups - Montreal, QC, CA
Headquartered at 3484 Peel Street since 1954, the Newman Centre exists to serve the spiritual, intellectual, and social interests of students, faculty, and staff at McGill University. The Centre boasts a long and proud history. Its origins date back to 1929 when the Newman name was first attached to the Catholic student society at McGill, which had previously been called the Loyola Club (1897-1907) and the Columbian Club (1907-1926). Its governing body, The Newman Association of Montreal Inc., was established in 1951 by Canon Gerald Emmett Carter, who later became Cardinal Archbishop of Toronto.Over its long history at McGill University the Newman Centre has grown into a well-established and internationally-respected Catholic institution offering a wide range of spiritual, educational, and community programs. While the Centre's Director has general oversight of the programming, the different facets of the Centre's mission are each entrusted to different members of the executive staff. This allows the Centre to draw on the richnesses inherent in both the lay and ordained vocations and to increase its dynamism on every level: spiritual and liturgical (the Chaplain), intellectual and educational (the Director), and catechesis and service (the Campus Minister and Associate Campus Minister). In fulfilling its mandate, the Centre also collaborates with McGill University, with the Newman Institute of Catholic Studies (NICS), and with the Newman Catholic Students' Society (NCSS).
