Meet Our Anselmians
"I believe with all my heart that today’s world needs Saint Anselm College, a place that is infused with the Catholic and Benedictine values of community, hospitality and love, where the humanities, arts and sciences and professional programs like nursing, criminal justice and business build on our liberal arts core rather than compete with it. We need a place where you don’t have to choose between career outcomes and life outcomes. That place is Saint Anselm."
In the classroom and in the community, an Anselmian education will challenge you to find your best self.

"There’s something more lasting about the impact you can have on people versus your research output. I’d rather have one or two people say that an interaction with me helped shape their journey as opposed to having one publication more."

Refreshments will be provided.
Eucharistic Adoration is a great way to spend time with God in the peace and silence of the Abbey Church. Take advantage of this unique opportunity to spend some quiet time with God. Come and go as you like.
The Sacrament of Penance is God's gift to us. In Confession we have the opportunity to repent and recover the grace of friendship with God. It is a holy moment in which we place ourselves in God's presence and honestly acknowledge our sins. With absolution, we are reconciled to God and the world.
Join us on Wednesday nights at 9:00 PM for Mass in the Lower Church. We are led in song by Hilltop Worship. Adoration and Reconciliation precede Mass at 7:45 PM.
