Visiting Chaplains
Although a distinctly Catholic organisation, our mission is the care of all patients. With this in mind the pastoral care team has contacts for all local churches, temples and synagogues. In addition, chaplains from various faith traditions and denominations regularly visit the Mater. These chaplains are officially endorsed and considered integral to the work of the pastoral care team. Visits can be arranged by contacting your pastoral carer. If you choose, your own minister, priest, rabbi or spiritual advisor is welcome to visit you.
* Mass schedules are subject to change. For information contact Pastoral Care or see the notice board outside the Chapel.
