Worship & Prayer

The Chaplaincy @Singleton Campus:

You are welcome to join us for regular worship on Singleton Campus at the following times:

• Meditation – 8.30am (led by people of all faiths and none). Whether you are completely new to meditation or are a seasoned practitioner why not join us at 8.30am for a twenty minute guided meditation as a great start to your day. The meditation is offered on a daily basis and is for anyone looking for some space and quiet in their lives. Meditation is great to reduce stress and anxiety, boost your immunity and help create clarity of mind. Just 20 minutes is all it takes. Why not give it a go?
  The meditation takes place in the Quiet room of the Chaplaincy (right hand side of Fulton House, next to Discovery). With soft lighting and essential oils burning the quiet room is the perfect place to meditate.
  For more information please contact chaplaincy.campuslife@swansea.ac.uk
• Wednesday Worship at 12.15pm – Come and join us for a 20 minute informal Christian Worship in the Chaplaincy, Fulton House every Wednesday at 12.15pm, come a bit earlier for refreshments or bring your own lunch.
• The Mosque @Singleton Campus
• New faith space @Bay Campus: we are very excited at the prospect of a new faith space being built on Bay Campus this autumn. This will mean that we will be able to offer many events and worship opportunities in a permanent location on Bay. In the meantime, please keep an eye on this space and on Social Media for specific events.

Our campus Mosque is a great way to enable students to mix with and befriend people from all over the world. It is this diversity that makes it such a unique and interesting place to be. The atmosphere of the mosque is also a suitable area for study for both overseas and home students.
