Free Food, info on how to get connected at SLC, & 300+ of your best pals.
Kick off the fall semester as God intended: with a lot of barbecue.
Bring the energy and show up ready—for solid dudes and a night that’s anything but boring. Whether you’re brand new or already plugged in, this is your chance to get connected with the men of SPO. Expect laughs, competition, maybe a little chaos, and a whole lot of brotherhood.
No frills. Just a good time with good guys.
We will be at the Men’s house across from SLC (the one with the dodge ball pit in the yard) - You’ll see us.
We’d love to see you there! We will be at the Women’s house across the street from SLC - You’ll see us!
Come as you are and join us for a relaxed evening with the women of St. Paul’s Outreach. Whether you're new or returning, this is a chance to connect, laugh, and share life with other women who are seeking authentic friendship and community. No pressure, no agenda—just good conversation.

Join the St. Lawrence Center for Family Weekend on the Hill on September 27, 2025, to celebrate Mass and breakfast. Mass at 9 am and breakfast to follow. We can't wait to gather all of our KU Catholic families together for a weekend of fun!
Take a break from campus and spend a meaningful weekend at Prairie Star Ranch—surrounded by good people, real conversations, and space to breathe.
God has always revealed Himself as a loving Father—but many of us struggle to trust that truth because of wounds or broken experiences of fatherhood.
This retreat is an invitation to rest, reflect, and rediscover what it means to be loved by the Father. Through prayer, talks, small groups, and time in nature, you'll have space to grow in friendship, encounter the Father’s love, and receive the freedom and blessing He desires for your life.
The whole SLC fam is going. Are you?

What Are You Chasing?
Money, success, pleasure, influence—we’re all chasing something. St. Thomas Aquinas breaks it down into four big things people often put in God’s place: wealth, power, pleasure, and status. They seem like the key to happiness, but if we’re not careful, they can take over and pull us away from what actually matters.
At Family Night, we’re diving into these "substitutes for God" and how they can impact our faith, relationships, and purpose. How do we recognize when we’re putting our trust in the wrong things? And what does it look like to live counter-culturally by choosing Christ instead?
Join us for real talk, community, and a chance to refocus on what truly fulfills. See you there!
Join Fr. Luke for a guided mediation and holy hour as we enter into Holy Week.

Embrace Who You’re Made to Be
Hey Fam,
Let’s be real—comparing ourselves to others is exhausting. Our first series of the semester is all about letting that go and discovering how to be the saint you’re meant to be.

Come as you are, and leave inspired to just be you.
As promised, Family Night will be a time to play, pray, and grow together. See you there.
