Kent Catholic Society of Our Lady and St. Thomas Becket

Kent Catholic Society is a vibrant student-led community at the University of Kent. We are dedicated to fostering faith, fellowship, and spiritual growth among our members. Our society is open to all students, providing a welcoming environment for Catholics and those interested in learning more about the Catholic faith.

Our Mission

Meeting Chirst

At the heart of our Catholic Society is our desire to help you meet Christ and to enter into a real and lasting relationship with him.
We meet daily for Holy Mass attendance, Eucharistic Adoration, and retreat opportunities. Our goal is to help each member deepen their relationship with Jesus, whether they're lifelong Catholic or just beginning to explore the faith. Through prayer, sacraments, and spiritual guidance, we strive to make Christ's presence a tangible reality in our university lives.

Feasting The Mind

We believe that faith and reason go hand in hand. We are dedicated to nourishing the intellect as well as the soul. We organize regular talks, debates, and study groups on Catholic theology, philosophy, and social teaching. From exploring the works of great Catholic thinkers to discussing how faith intersects with contemporary issues, we aim to equip our members with a robust understanding of their faith. This intellectual journey helps us to articulate our beliefs confidently and engage meaningfully with the academic world.

Growing in Community

From our Communion with Christ, comes our Community together.
We are family and we try to be a place where lasting friendships are formed. Through social events, shared meals, and community service projects, we create opportunities for members to connect, support each other, and grow together in faith. Our community is a place where you can be yourself, share your joys and challenges, and make friendships for life.

Transforming the Culture

We believe that our faith calls us to be a positive force for change in the world around us. We are committed to transforming the culture around us, and we do this by our various outreach programs.
By witnessing to our faith through action, we aim to help to build a culture where every life, from the womb to the grave, is protected, nurtured and enabled to thrive.
