Holy Belonging: A Place for All
Campus Ministry welcomes you, for you have been wonderfully and fiercely made! We embrace and celebrate the rich diversity and intersectionality that exists within our Lion Community, supporting the different expressions of human love and sexuality among all of God’s beloved children.
We welcome all people of all faiths, no faith, and those who continue to seek God, upholding our LMU charisms that all may have life, that all may be one for the greater glory of God.
Committed to creating spaces of holy belonging through prayerful discernment, conversations and ongoing education, Holy Belonging strives to be a prophetic voice that invites our LMU community a more loving, compassionate, and respectful place for all.

What is IgnatianQ?
Every year, the IgnatianQ conference is hosted by a Jesuit institution to build community, foster spirituality, and affirm the humanity of LGBTQIA+ students. Founded in spring 2014 at Fordham University, it has since been hosted twice by Fordham. Other host institutions include Georgetown University, Seattle University, Santa Clara University, Loyola University Maryland, and the College of the Holy Cross. The conference provides a unique opportunity to engage with LGBTQIA+ students from across the Jesuit network of colleges and universities and learn more about the issues they face. Through workshops, discussions, and shared experiences, the conference cultivates a supportive and inclusive environment, fostering collective learning and growth for all participants. In April 2025, LMU hosted IgnatianQ with the theme “Queera Personalis” which aims to create a space where students can connect personally with the care of God. This theme involves envisioning a broader Ignatian value of cura personalis, which means “care for the entire person.”
