Buddhist Chaplaincy at Northumbria University
Rev Sujatin Johnson, Minister with the Order, was appointed as a member of the Northumbria University Chaplaincy team on Friday.
This Chaplaincy was set up as multi-faith but has only had Christian chaplains to date. She is a full member of the team, acting as Buddhist Contact person, with responsibility for the needs of Buddhists at the university, for the first year, after which she will be Buddhist Chaplain, with responsibility for the spiritual needs of all students and staff. She has been Buddhist Chaplain at the other university in the city, Newcastle University, for the past four years
Congratulations to Sujatin. An important positive step in inter-faith relations in Newcastle.
