Hospital Chapel

Our chapel is open 24 hours daily for quiet reflection. It is located on Level 4 of the Clifford Tower.

A prayer service is conducted in the chapel 8:15 – 8:30am Monday to Friday. All are welcome. You are also invited to put a prayer request in the box outside the chapel. These requests are prayed for daily by our Spiritual Care Services team.

'First Friday' - Open invitation to all

Everyone is welcome at the First Friday service at the San Chapel – a monthly opportunity to share and be inspired by stories of healing and restoration.

A new hospital initiative encouraged by Adventist HealthCare Director of Mission and Culture Dr Branimir Schubert, these up-to-an-hour long events aim to reaffirm the Hospital Mission of Christianity in Action and how we follow Christ’s example of health and healing.

Commencing at 6.45 for 7pm start on the first Friday of each month, with light refreshments after the occasion.
