Pastoral

Live the faith in community at PUCV

The PUCV Pastoral is a space for encounter, reflection and service that seeks to bring the Good News of Jesus to the heart of university life. We accompany students, academics and staff in their journey of faith, generating meaningful experiences that strengthen the spiritual life and commitment to others.

Through various activities, prayers, formation spaces and missions, we respond to the call of Pope Francis to live a Church that goes out, present in the midst of the university community.

If you would like to learn more about our initiatives and join us in this transforming experience, we invite you to visit our website and discover all that the Pastoral has prepared for you:
