SUM is an Austin, TX based group of university men trying to grow in their relationship with God through freedom, fraternity and self-knowledge.

What We Do…

  • Life Groups (LGs) – Every week small groups meet to share a meal, grow in Schoenstatt spirituality, and strengthen personal faith through conversation and prayer.
    Weekly Adoration – Every Thursday at 8:00 PM, we host adoration at the University Catholic Center, welcoming students into prayer and reflection.
  • SUM Events – Each semester begins and ends with our Branch Retreats, a time to renew our brotherhood and spiritual focus.
  • IGNIS Mission Week – Each December, SUM members serve alongside young adults from across Austin during IGNIS. Learn more at ignis.us.
  • Volunteer Locally – We organize and join service projects across the Austin community throughout the year.
