The Catholic Community at Hopkins is an undergraduate ministry of Saints Philip and James University Parish at Johns Hopkins University.

All of our Sunday Masses are celebrated at Saints Philip and James Catholic Church and University Parish, right down the street from the south of Homewood campus. The student Newman Center, located in the lower level of the parish building next to the Church, serves as a home for the Catholic Community, and it hosts many of our weekly and special events. The Newman Center is always open for studying and socializing, with couches, a pool table, books, a TV, a full kitchen, and spaces for prayer.

Catholic ministries are supported the Dominican Order, also known as the Order of Preachers, who are assisted by the entire parish staff. Led by the chaplains, the students serve on the leadership board and help plan and organize multiple weekly spiritual, social, and charitable events. Many students also volunteer to assist at Mass as altar servers, Eucharistic ministers, lectors, sacristans, musicians, choir members, and more.
