Welcome!

Every year, thousands of students walk on ESU’s campus. For some, it marks the beginning of their university journey, while for others, it is another step in their ongoing academic careers.
No matter who you are or where you’re from, Didde is the place for you.

Our students come from all over the world: from small-town Kansas, to the entire Midwest, and even South America. Our community is diverse, and each member is as unique as you are.

As a Catholic Campus Center, Didde strives to provide a welcoming home for all ESU students. Our center is more than just a space; it’s a vibrant community where you can relax, study, enjoy a coffee, or grab a bite. It’s a place where you can forge lasting friendships with peers who share your faith and where you can deepen your spiritual journey.

Didde offers a variety of programs designed to foster personal growth and deepen your discipleship. Our weekly schedule is packed with activities, games, and fun events. We also organize retreats and mission trips to enrich your spiritual life. You can participate in all the sacraments, including Daily Mass, frequent Confessions, and weekly Adoration.

Our team is devoted to walking with you. We have a staff of adults and students, including FOCUS missionaries, who are eager to meet you, learn your name, and grow in friendship with you. They are here to meet you where you are and challenge you to become the best version of yourself.

College is an exciting time, but it can also be daunting. Having a supportive community makes all the difference. Didde is committed to being that community, offering encouragement through every high and low.

On behalf of Didde and all members of HornetCatholic, I welcome you to your new community. You belong here, and we are so excited to meet you.

God Bless,
Fr. Ashmore
