Newman Center is part of the Catholic family of churches in The American Church Story. 687 congregations of the Catholic family gather across Wisconsin — 18,933 across the United States on The Church Map.
From the Catholic Church the whole body received the canon of Scripture, the creeds still recited every Sunday in traditions that never look to Rome, and monasteries that kept learning and Scripture alive through a thousand unlit years. Its parishes remain the largest network of schools, hospitals, and shelters in America, most of them serving people who will never attend a Mass.

The community around Newman Center
Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About 2 in 3 the people here live below the poverty line, and more than a third of adults say they are socially isolated. That is two thousand neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
