Office of Mission & Ministry
“As the Father has sent me, so I send you.”
— John 20:21
The Office of Mission & Ministry coordinates the college-wide process of maintaining, enhancing, and promoting the distinctive mission of Providence College as a Catholic and Dominican institution.
The word mission comes from the Latin, missio, which means “to be sent,” while ministry means to serve. We aim to develop and nurture a community culture in which all members participate in and benefit from a common mission inspired by faith and aided by grace.
