About The Position

Central Catholic High School is searching for a leader with a contagious deep personal faith and dedication to the Marianist charism who will direct the efforts of evangelization in the school community. This enthusiastic, organized, and self-motivated person is skillful at igniting the fire of faith within our young men and excels at mentoring a team of adult campus ministers. The Campus Ministry program seeks to nurture and develop the spiritual lives of our students – forming them to live lives filled with faith, hope, and love. We form them to become men of prayer, community, evangelization, and service. Through monthly Masses, daily prayer, retreats, service opportunities, liturgical choir, the sacrament of reconciliation, the LIFE team, and other formational activities, we invite and encourage every student to seek God’s presence in all things and live authentic Christian lives. Our faith community strives to reflect Christ’s care and concern for all people as we draw inspiration from the founder of the Marianist family, Blessed W. Joseph Chaminade. It is one of discipleship and brotherhood, fostering transformative encounters with God.
