Foundations in Faith
Expanding St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic Newman Center
Thanks in large part to the generous people of God of the Diocese of Peoria, St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic Newman Center has been given a $3,000,000 jumpstart from the Rooted in Faith Campaign for the construction of a new chapel and expanded ministry and administrative space. Hundreds of benefactors across the diocese have given specifically to the St. Robert Bellarmine Initiative.
Of highest priority is the construction of a new chapel, which will occur during Phase I of the project. Concurrently, expanded ministry and administrative space will also be added. Phase II will involve a demolition and rebuild of the remaining parts of the Center so as to best utilize the space, modernize utilities, and clearly delineate worship space from recreation space (solving our single greatest issue — allowing students to “pray” and “play” at the same time).
