Meet International Catholics
-
-
We seek to build bridges between international and domestic students by hosting a dinner series at St. Tom’s on Friday nights.
We hope to provide participating students, regardless of their religious and cultural backgrounds, with a welcoming, hospitable environment where they can feel comfortable, appreciated, and heard. And we eat some great food!
We take seriously the mission Pope Francis gives to us of creating a “culture of encounter.”

“For me this word is very important. Encounter with others. Why? Because faith is an encounter with Jesus, and we must do what Jesus does: encounter others. We live in a culture of conflict, a culture of fragmentation, a culture in which I throw away what is of no use to me, a culture of waste… we must go out to meet them, and with our faith we must create a “culture of encounter”, a culture of friendship, a culture in which we find brothers and sisters, in which we can also speak with those who think differently, as well as those who hold other beliefs, who do not have the same faith.”
POPE FRANCIS
