Truth? Nah, Just Vibes: Decoding Moral Relativism


Fr. Juan José Hernández, LC will lead us in a reflection of how moral relativism can seep into our lives and keep us from making decisions that will lead to our happiness and holiness.

Mass is at 9 am at the Falcone-Arena House, followed by brunch and a great talk.

RSVP Here

-->
The Falcone-Arena House (FAH) offers the Duke Catholic Center a unique opportunity to minister to the Duke Catholic community. To create the right environment of welcome and community, the DCC offers four Duke Catholic students the opportunity to live together in the FAH, offering a spacious and comfortable housing opportunity at a much-reduced housing rate so that these four residents may facilitate a healthy sense of Catholic community on the property. We are currently seeking resident applications for the 2025-2026 School Year; click here to learn more and apply!

Spend your summer with the Duke Catholic Center!

Go behind the scenes to make our ministry happen. Competitive compensation (free housing + pay). Ideal for those who are seeking meaningful ministry experience!

Lent begins this Wednesday

Lent, which begins with Ash Wednesday, is a holy and sacred season of reflection, repentance, and renewal. It is a season that calls us to draw nearer to Christ, setting aside distractions and making space for God to work in our hearts. The Duke Catholic Center has scheduled many events and curated resources to help assist you during this sacred season, including a video series of Lenten reflections from Catholic Duke students and DCC Director, Fr. Juan José Hernández, LC.

Sophomore Paul Fong starts our Lenten video series today with a reflection on our Lenten penance and how we can alter our journey to find joy and transformation. These reflections will be published throughout the Lenten season within the DCC App and on our YouTube channel (@dukecatholic).

Beginning tomorrow, you can find our digital Pocket Companion for your Lenten journey nested within the DCC App (Apple Store/Google Play Store). This digital Lent Pocket Companion includes a Spotify playlist; Confession, Rosary, and Stations of the Cross how-to-guides; prayers; Scripture reflections; and much more! 

Let's walk together, step by step, on this sacred journey through Lent.

Together We Thrive:
Help Sustain Our Faith Community


You might think, "I don't have enough to give."But giving isn't just for those with steady incomes—it's an opportunity to grow in trust and commitment to God and our faith in Him, even as students. 

The Duke Catholic Center isn't like a typical parish with families supporting it every week, and the DCC is not funded by the university or the diocese. In fact, over 85% of our funding comes directly from individual contributions made by students, parents, and alumni. 

Whether it's $5, $10, or the price of your weekly coffee, a regular weekly or monthly financial commitment shows your love for this community and keeps it thriving for all of us! Let's join together in intentional giving and make an impact today.
