Hello, and welcome to Liturgical and Worship ministry at Loyola! The Catholic Mass and other worship services are our community's expression of our faith and of our desire for communion with God and each other. If you are new to Mass or other worship, or if you are not sure if they are for you, take the opportunity while at Loyola to experience something new, or something old in a new way.

Communion Bread Bakers
Students take turns baking the bread to be used for Mass. The recipe consists only of whole wheat flour and water, baked in round loaves at 375 degrees for 9 minutes. Students can use ovens in their residence halls. All other materials (bowls, rolling pin, etc.) can be provided upon request. Watch a video demo here!
