Chaplaincy

The Chaplaincy of the University of Passau is the point of contact for all those who are looking for personal conversations, pastoral support or specific advice in difficult life situations.

What the Chaplaincy can offer you

Especially at the beginning of a new phase in life like starting a course of study, but also after reaching midlife and other far-reaching changes, many people start to question their own identity. “What do I want and why?” The Chaplaincy of the University of Passau helps students, staff and relatives in their quest for individual answers. It is also available for everyday problems concerning your studies as well as any other areas where you may need guidance.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about topics such as:

• Spiritual support
• Personal pastoral conversation about questions of life
• Exchange on questions of faith and religious practice
• Help in the search for further programmes for specific problems
• Questions of joining or transitioning to a church and adult baptism
• Weddings and baptisms of children
• Funerals
• Confession
• Coaching and supervision

You are welcome to contact us by e-mail or telephone to make an appointment for a personal consultation.
