Catholic Longhorns for Life
Catholic Longhorns for Life (CLFL) supports the pro-life cause through prayer, volunteering, activism, and education. Issues we discuss include: in-vitro fertilization, natural family planning, euthanasia, the death penalty, and abortion.
During our meetings, held every other Monday from 8-9 p.m. at the UT Catholic Center, we learn about pro-life topics, bring in speakers, discuss volunteering and educational opportunities, and pray for a conversion of the hearts of those who do not fully understand God's most precious gift—the gift of life.
Please see our Calendar of Events or contact us at CLFLContact@gmail.com for more information on our meetings and other events.

CFC Youth
CFC Youth is a charismatic Catholic group that meets MONDAYS at 7pm upstairs in St. Mark's Room of the the University Catholic Center.
Every week we discuss about real-life issues that Catholic college students face. Examples of issues from the past semester include: "Battling the Freshman 15," "Unity in the Family," and "The Struggles College Students face with Drugs and Alcohol."
We also have praise and worship at every week, so if you're looking for a place to sing contemporary Christian music, our meetings are the place to go to!
Compass
Want to dive deeper into the Sunday readings? Stop by the next Compass meeting! Every Thursday at 7 p.m., students look at the upcoming Sunday readings and prepare themselves to better understand the texts.
Lambda Omega Alpha
LOA is a fellowship of Catholic men brought together by their faith. We engage in service, spiritual and social activities frequently during the school year.
Longhorn Awakening
Longhorn Awakening is a retreat held every semester by students, for students. It is held in Jarrell, Texas, about 45 minutes north of Austin.
Mu Epsilon Theta
Mu Epsilon Theta was formed on Catholic principles to unite college women by promoting academics, leadership and community service as well as moral and spiritual well-being.
Social Justice Team
A commitment to enacting the social Gospel has been and continues to be a hallmark of the University Catholic Center, and of the Paulist Fathers. The UCC Social Justice Team connects what we experience at Mass to how we live by serving the common good through works of mercy for the poor and vulnerable as well as working to eliminate the conditions that create the need for charity by advocating for just social policy and education of the community.
STRONG
A ministry team of college students that serve the Austin Diocese through putting on retreats directed toward Jr. High and Sr. High School youth.
University Graduates and Profesionals (UGAP)
As a group of recently graduated young adults and graduate students we bond together to help grow in our Catholic Faith though Spiritual Growth, Catholic Fellowship and Community Service in a manner that does not hinder our other responsibilities as young adults. We do a variety of activities (we try to mix things up) that include bowling, movie and game nights, rosary, working at a local food pantry, bible study, and discussions with priests and other religious people. Oh yea, we also really like to eat. Our weekly meetings are on Tuesdays at 7pm but we sometimes get together for other events. For more information contact Nathan Erickson at ugap@utcatholic.org or visit their website.
