The Student Chaplain

I am here for you as a student. It is up to you to decide what you need the Chaplain for. Naturally, you can come to me to speak about God, but I am also here for those who wish to speak about something quite different.

Life is complex and a student's life is no different. Some days are more difficult than others. Sometimes it is best to share difficult choices, thoughts and bad feelings with others. Maybe you just need someone to think aloud with? Maybe you wish to discuss faith and doubt?

Sometimes we need a space that is different. A refuge from our hectic day-to-day existence where there are no demands and expectations. A place of rest, prayer, meditation and reflection. Such a room can be found both at Gimlemoen (F2-013) and in Grimstad (A1-130). These rooms are not consecrated; we use them in respect for each other - irrespective of religion or view of life. “The quiet rooms” will almost always be open and you are welcome to step inside.
