McGill Office of Religious and Spiritual Life - MORSL

McGill Office of Religious and Spiritual Life - MORSL MORSL is a proud member of McGill University Student Services.

MORSL is dedicated to supporting the spiritual and religious life of every McGill student, including members of one of the traditional World Religions or new religious movements, students who don't fit into official religious categories but nonetheless have a desire for mystery, deeper meaning, and community, or even just students who wish to learn more about the faith of their neighbours and gain skills for existence in a pluralistic world.

* We direct students who are in need of spiritual guidance -- or who are seeking spiritual community within an existing tradition -- to our diverse team of faith volunteers.
* We provide opportunities for students to practice peaceful coexistence alongside different neighbours at one of our many interfaith activities.
* We offer sacred time and space for contemplative rejuvenation amidst the stress of university life, with our guided or Quaker meditations, our non-denominational prayer space, and various other oases from stress.
* We help students build a stronger C.V. through a rewarding volunteer and Work Study experiences.
* We also have a safe and cozy lounge where students can be themselves, have a tea or coffee, and meet other students in an environment that's a bit more like home. McGill Office of Religious and Spiritual Life is proud to form a part of your McGill Student Services team.

Enjoy a guided experience through trails on Mont Royal exploring nature, reflection, and what 'sacred' can mean across cultures and perspectives. ❤️‍🔥Through quiet observation, simple practices, and conversation, we'll explore our connection to place, presence, and the natural world. You'll also have time to meet and chat with other students. 🫶

We'll learn a bit about the history of Mount Royal and how diverse groups have treated it as sacred, and discuss and experience simple, personalized ways we can experience and notice sacredness in the forest and our everyday lives.🌲🌳🌲
