University Chaplaincy at UCLy

The University Pastoral Service of UCLy

Services at the Saint-Irénée Chapel

Services at the Chaplaincy begin from Tuesday, the 7th of September, at 12:15 by Father Bertrand CHATAIN.

The Chaplaincy welcomes students, teachers, and staff of the Catholic University of Lyon for exchanges, reflections, and creativity in events organised throughout the year.

Everyone is welcome!

The aim is to accompany students in their process of inner growth, and the staff in the re-reading of their professional activity, in the light of the Gospel.

Useful Information

The chaplaincy is led by Father Bertrand CHATAIN with the help of the Joint Pastoral Council.

The chaplaincy of UCLy participates in the Mission Étudiante Catholique de France.

Certain student activities are organised in connection with the youth ministry of the diocese of Lyon.
