Catholic Campus Ministry

Roman Catholic students are always welcome in the Office of Faith & Spiritual Life, and they are supported by Christ the King Catholic Campus Ministry, which will soon be known as St. Patrick Newman Club. Christ the King is located just a few blocks away from Augustana's campus. Mass is held every Sunday at 5 p.m. for students.

Traci Austin is the director of the St. Patrick Newman Club (formerly Christ the King Campus Ministry). Originally from Warner, South Dakota, Austin experienced a deeper conversion and desire for ministry during her time as a student at the University of South Dakota. Since then, she has served college students at campuses throughout the Midwest. She works alongside Spencer Titus to provide formation, spiritual support and prayer opportunities for Augustana students. Austin enjoys volleyball, good coffee and great conversations with friends.

Spencer Titus is the associate director of the St. Patrick Newman Club (formerly Christ the King Campus Ministry). Originally from Aberdeen, South Dakota, Titus is in his second year of college ministry. He assists Traci Austin in providing spiritual guidance to the students of Augustana. Titus enjoys staying active, whether through sports, exercise or other outdoor activities!
