There are Chaplaincy Centres in both the Townsville and Cairns campuses. While the Chaplaincy centres do not advocate or promote any particular Church or religious organisation, JCU Multifaith Chaplaincy does support religious expression and increasing opportunities for inter-faith dialogue.
The Cairns JCU Multifaith Chaplaincy has a multifaith prayer room, located in Room A4.032.1
Swipe card access is required for entry and washing facilities are available in the A4 ground level amenities. Please sign in and out using the Sign in sheet in the room.
The facility does not require booking and is accessible 7.00am – 9.00pm daily.
The Townsville JCU Multifaith Chaplaincy is located in Building 131 and is open 9.00am – 5.00pm, Monday – Friday.
Please sign in and out using the sign in sheet on the hallway whiteboard.

Multifaith chaplaincy invites students & staff to make an appointment with the chaplain. This is a private, confidential service. The chaplain is not here to judge, convert or advocate for any particular faith. Those seeking to meet with the chaplain may simply be seeking a listening ear. If you would like to talk about study, friends, family, faith concerns or any other issue on your mind, consider contacting the chaplain.
The Multifaith Chaplaincy Centre is here to support the spiritual and/or pastoral needs facing our community. As well as chatting with the chaplain, it may also include pastoral visits to hospital, arranging events and facilitating activities throughout the year. If you have an idea for a great activity, share it with the chaplain! All ideas that reflect the core values of JCU (Authenticity, Integrity, Excellence and Respect) are welcome.
