The University Chaplain provides interfaith services and programs and serves as an umbrella for all religious life on all campuses. The University Chaplain works cooperatively with the Jewish, Catholic, Protestant and Muslim Chaplains and administers Goddard Chapel and the Interfaith Center, 58 Winthrop St. as university facilities. Special support is provided for traditions not represented by Chaplains, like Eastern Orthodox Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism.
The University Chaplain also reaches beyond traditional religious groups to concerns in all aspects of university endeavor and in relations with surrounding communities. This includes teaching, community service, counseling, helping to address ethical and spiritual concerns for Tufts. The University Chaplaincy upholds the Universalist tradition and commitment to inclusivity.
The Interfaith Center is located at 58 Winthrop St. For information regarding policies and reservation form for the Center, please consult our reservation form or for further information, please call 617-627-3427.
