Multifaith chaplains

Rabbi Bochi Broh

I'm the Jewish Chaplain on campus. I have spent the past 10 years travelling the world as a Rabbi, helping serve different communities in countries such as Nigeria, Serbia, Israel, Italy, Canada, US and China to name just a few. Life is short and precious, and it's my mission to bring out the best within each individual, helping people to focus on the good. 'Think good and it will be good!' Feel free to contact me whenever and wherever so together we can help make this place a world G-d would be proud to call His home.

I’m an Evangelical chaplain at Burwood Campus. I became a Christian when I was in first year Uni so, I understand the student journey. I was a visiting chaplain in Western Australia in 2018. I was born in mainland China and can speak Cantonese, Mandarin and English. I love listening to your stories – both study and work, so feel free to contact me via email or phone for an appointment.

I’m the Catholic chaplain at Deakin’s Burwood Campus, and also the Assistant Priest at St Benedict’s Catholic Community just down the road. Studying at university is a challenging yet exciting undertaking, and I’m here to support students to grow through these challenges and find what they are looking for. I’m available for all students with questions about life, spirituality or study. Please contact me if you would like to have a chat.

I am the Seventh-day Adventist Chaplain at Burwood. I am driven by justice advocacy work, community connectedness, authentic living, building leaders, and passionately yearn to see the person of Jesus truly honoured in the way we live and love each other. It's an honour and a privilege to be part of the chaplaincy team as uni can be overwhelming. I offer an opportunity to provide support and to walk alongside students and staff alike.

I'm an Anglican minister serving at St Thomas' Anglican church, close to Deakin Burwood. My passion is to encourage people to ask the bigger questions of life while at university; there is no better time for working out not only what you will do with your life, but why you go where you go, and how you become who you want to be. Come chat about what matters to you or take up the chance to learn about other ways of life.

(Dr Andrew Chung)

I am a Buddhist Forest Monk, and delighted to make connections with, and support Deakin’s diverse Buddhist community. As a multifaith chaplain, I am available for all students and staff – whatever faith affinity or background. I’m interested in promoting equality, inclusion and diversity in all areas of life, including spirituality. I want to help remove barriers to social and spiritual participation, especially for women; transgender, non-binary, and gender diverse people; those who are same-sex attracted, have a disability or are from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities.

I’m the Catholic chaplain at the Geelong campuses and also the Parish Priest at Corio and Lara. Born in the Philippines, I grew up in Melbourne and completed studies in nursing before becoming a priest. For Catholics looking for spiritual or sacramental support, or anyone simply happy to have a chat, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I’m very happy to help in whatever way I can.

My name is David Luis and I'm a Christian chaplain. I am passionate about supporting people spiritually, emotionally, and physically, in whatever life stage and/or belief in God throughout their university career. My approach in supporting people through conversation, prayer, reading the bible and listening has been fruitful in helping people learn about themselves and linking people to other support services and people if needed. If you'd like to chat, please contact me and we can catch up!
