Statement of Faith: As a student leader at the Newman Catholic Centers of the Diocese of Sacramento, I affirm and support the teachings of the Holy Catholic Church and commit to uphold and share them, to the best of my ability, including the following:
*
The Church’s teaching on the dignity of every human person and the protection of human life from conception to natural death.
The Church’s teaching on marriage as a covenant between one man and one woman.
The true presence of Jesus Christ in the Most Holy Eucharist, and the grace given through the Sacraments.
The doctrinal and moral teachings entrusted to the Church in the deposit of faith, to the best of my knowledge and understanding.
A commitment to Christian servant leadership, including generosity, integrity of life, and charity toward every person I encounter.
A sincere effort to avoid grave sin and any conduct that harms myself or others, including substance abuse and intoxication, sexual activity outside of marriage, and speech that violates charity (such as slander, detraction, or gossip).
If I fall into sin or struggle in these areas, I will seek conversion and return to the state of grace through the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

I will continually pursue a sacramental life and ongoing formation through the Church, Catholic community, Sacred Scripture, the lives of the saints, and the teaching and pastoral guidance of the clergy and current leadership of the Catholic Church.
I acknowledge the responsibilities of student leadership and will strive to live an authentic Christian life that avoids scandal and consistently points others to Jesus Christ and His Church.
I acknowledge that I do not walk the life of faith alone, and I will seek support and accountability from the Newman Center Directors and Chaplains, as well as priests and religious serving within our local parishes and wider Catholic community.
