Summer is a great time to slow down and invest some time in your spiritual self care. At MORSL, we will be open throughout the summer term, but with a few closures
We will be closed for public holidays on May 22, June 22-23, and June 29-30
Exceptionally, we will also close on Thursday July 13 for a Student Services staff activity
MORSL is launching a peer faith volunteer program this Fall and we are now accepting applications for student volunteers.
We encourage applications from both undergraduate and graduate students at McGill who are looking to enhance their involvement with their faith or spiritual life through peer support. Volunteers will be trained to provide confidential, non-judgmental faith-based peer support and participate in a vibrant, multi-faith cohort designed to encourage multi-faith learning and collaboration.
Are you a student who is invested in social movements and the spiritual work involved to sustain hope and void burnout? Movement Chaplaincy training might be for you! MORSL is accepting applications for training Feb. 1- April 19, in partnership with Faith Matters Network (FMN). MORSL is sponsoring a McGill student cohort that will participate in the online classes with FMN as well as a local McGill student learning community for ongoing support and implementation of skills learned.
With cold and flu season picking up – especially during COVID-19 – many members of the McGill community are interested in obtaining a flu vaccination. Quebec’s flu vaccine program launched on November 1st and is free for people who are most at risk of developing complications. Individuals who do not meet these criteria may still get vaccinated but must pay for their vaccine.
Some of the individuals included in Quebec’s free vaccination program include:

As the Summer term begins, MORSL is offering two new workshop series during the month of May. Join us at MORSL throughout the month of May each Tuesday and Wednesday evening as we explore various questions touching on coping with grief and loss, and our relationship to the environment. These events are open to all McGill students free of charge. In addition, by attending one (or multiple) of these events, you have the chance to win a prize we will raffle off such as a $20 e-gift card or book!

Monday October 12th is Thanksgiving Day in Canada, and the campus will be closed for a statutory holiday.

From June 25 to July 11, 2020, Student Services surveyed new and returning degree-seeking students about their plans for the remote Fall 2020 semester, on topics ranging from living situations to access to technology to student needs and well-being.

In May 2020, Teaching and Learning Services (TLS), Student Services, and Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (GPS) collaborated to launch the COVID-19 Student Impact Survey to help units across the University better understand the student experience in the Winter 2020 term. With a 22% response rate from the over 30,000 graduate and undergraduate students who received the survey, the results will be used to inform how we serve and support students in the coming year.
