The ministry life center is the culmination of 5 years of work, planning, and support. It greatly increases our capacity for the Café Manna Soup Kitchen, all church functions, and the meals for students following the 5 PM Sunday Mass. It has served us well and continues to be a great blessing for us. It was christened with our Advent Student Dinner on December 12, 2010 by Bishop Melczek after our Student Mass. The upstairs contains our Adoration Chapel dedicated to Our Lady Undoer of Knots, a large meeting room ("The Antioch Room"), and most importantly the student lounge. 

Avila Hall is the main hall for community events. Café Manna, Sunday Night meals for students, the Student Advent Dinner and other large events take place here, comfortably seating 200 people. This room also includes a movable partition for smaller events and is reservable for those who may need it. Please contact our Manager of Parish Operations, Christine Harsh, for more details at 219 - 464 - 4042.
