Who we are

Welcome to the Protestant University Chaplaincy in Frankfurt am Main! Our Mission statement: Our cross has no strings attached.
We choose heart over hate.
You can’t decide where you’re born – but you can choose where you belong. We believe falafel pairs perfectly with green sauce, and that life is better lived together than against each other.
Our horizon is as wide as the sky above Frankfurt’s skyline – rainbow and all. For us, democracy means working for the good of everyone, while respecting different opinions.
But let’s be clear: antisemitism and racism are not opinions. We strive to create spaces where everyone can feel safe, valued, and truly at home. What matters to us …

  • Creating a welcoming space for all students and staff of Frankfurt’s universities – no matter your religious or philosophical background.

  • Celebrating diversity and making room for a wide range of perspectives.

  • Providing opportunities for exchange between students from many different countries and cultures.

  • Partnering in open, interdisciplinary, and interfaith dialogue.

  • Exploring together what it means to follow Jesus and live as a Christian in today’s world.

  • Being a light on campus – and helping you shine in your own way, for yourself and others.

  • Offering encouragement and standing up for what matters.

  • Nurturing mindfulness and compassion.

  • Being here for you with individual advice and personal support.

  • Hosting a variety of events for students who are curious and engaged.
