Greetings from the Free Church Chaplain at UEA, Deacon Jen Woodfin.
The Free Church Chaplain is a member of the UEA Chaplaincy team, which is there for all UEA students and staff - of all faiths or none.
Jen is normally available in the Chaplaincy on campus on Mondays, Tuesday mornings, and Fridays in term time.
Offering friendship and support
Listening to your concerns
Helping to meet your spiritual and religious needs
At the heart of the campus, the Chaplaincy provides a vibrant space for all members of the University community. You can come here to relax, enjoy light refreshments, or spend time in public worship or quiet thought. It’s a popular gathering place that welcomes students and staff of any or no faith.
The Chaplaincy team are always glad to meet students and staff socially and pastorally. As a valued part of the University’s welfare network, the chaplains offer everyone a sympathetic ear in total confidence.
