Mount Allison is consulting the campus community about the future of the chaplaincy at the university.

The school is hosting a virtual town hall session tonight starting at 6:30pm, and has distributed a questionnaire to students and staff on the future of the chaplaincy at the school.

The chaplain position at Mount Allison has been vacant since Reverend John Perkin retired last summer after 27 years as the school’s chaplain.

Those interested in participating via Zoom are being asked to e-mail religion@mta.ca , People can also send in their ideas via email. The session takes place tonight at 6:30pm.

Here’s an interview with former chaplain John Perkin, conducted by local journalist Bruce Wark in May 2020:
