Central to the life of Christian discipleship is love of neighbor and the pursuit of justice, including a special care for and solidarity with, the poor and needy. That solidarity challenges people of faith to make the world more loving, more just, more peaceful and more committed to life. SLU Madrid offer its students, faculty and staff opportunities for living out their identity as “men and women for others.” Offerings coordinated through Campus Ministry include:

Community ESL
This SLU Madrid program offers free English as a Second Language classes for those in the Madrid community. Classes are given once or twice a week in the evenings. Classes form at the beginning of each semester and run through the end of the term. Basic class preparation is given prior to starting with assistance provided as needed. English fluency required. Contact: Professor Hamish Binns, hbinns@slu.edu
