Campus Ministry

Campus Ministry Team (CMT)

The Campus Ministry Team (CMT) is an essential part of the Salesian community as this team helps communicate and spread our Salesian charism. Click the button below to learn more about Campus Ministry and how students deepen their faith at Salesian.

Our Catholic calling challenges us daily to love as we have been loved by God. Our Salesian calling challenges us still further to become the image of Jesus in the ordinary daily moments of our existence. Salesian College Preparatory is unique in its efforts to emphasize that we are all involved in ministry and in the mission to make our campus an experience of God’s abiding love and compassion for all.

CMT members express, through their faith-based emphasis on service, our Salesian commitment to serve youth and those in need. Students in CMT are at the heart of many of our school's community-focused activities. Such events include community toy-drives, fundraisers for international relief causes, local carnivals and events for children in the community. Students join the Campus Ministry Team through a process of application and interview. They are responsible for helping plan and lead worship, and overseeing community outreach events.

Two members of CMT are appointed to serve on the Council of the Educating Pastoral Community (CEPC).

Who are the Salesians of St. John Bosco?

St. John Bosco began his work with a religious community of Brothers and Priests known as the Salesians of Don Bosco. The Salesian Sisters, officially known as the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians, is a Catholic religious community of women founded by St. Maria Domenica Mazzarello and St. John Bosco.

Don Bosco also established a group called the Salesian Cooperators. The cooperators are laymen and women who live the spirituality and ministry of the Salesians. They bring the Church to their lives in the workplace, the home, and society.

What is SLYC?

The Salesian Youth Leadership Conference (SYLC) is a formation experience of Salesian spirituality, leadership training, and networking for young people from Salesian ministries throughout the Western United States. Since the summer of 1985, young people and adults have gathered at SYLC to develop their abilities as youth ministry leaders and to grow in friendship as members of the Salesian Youth Movement.

Service Day at Salesian
