Faber House is named after Blessed Peter Faber, S.J., a college friend of St. Ignatius and a talented retreat director. The house is an extension of the University Ministry office--a “retreat headquarters.” Specifically, it is a space reserved for preparing retreats, continuing retreats and further developing University Ministry programs.

University Ministry is responsible for coordinating the Faber House calendar and for allowing usage. For the most part, the house is available to any student who requests to use it, particularly when connected to one of our retreat programs. Priority will be given to the main University Ministry retreat programs (in order of nearness to the retreat weekend) and to all other University Ministry programs.

Two or three student assistants live in Faber House each year to assist in house maintenance, University Ministry programming and other activities. The application process for these positions occurs in the winter of each academic year.

If you would like to reserve space in Faber House, please email your request to faberhouse@gonzaga.edu.

Current Faber House Student Assistants are Colleen Dawson '10, Kelley Hickey '10 and Alyssa Harvey '10.
