The Church’s Student Work

Student Chaplaincy

Period of study brings many opportunities, but also questions. Even in the middle of challenges it is good to know that we are ready to talk about the issues that preoccupy your mind. If necessary, we help open the knots and see things in a slightly new light. Just the way it suits you, bound by absolute confidentiality. 

Typical issues are interpersonal issues, loneliness, life management and various crisis. 

Chaplains are happy to administer ecclesiastical ordinances, that is, baptisms, weddings, home blessings, and funerals. Conformation school is also possible to study privately. Deacon in Student Chaplaincy is also professional of Social Services. With her, you also can clarify economical issues. 

Feel free to contact the way it suits best for you: phone, e-mail, WA, Fb, Messenger, Jodel (anonym).
