Alphie’s Trough – The Faith and Life Centre

Formerly the Staff and Graduate Student lounge, the Faith and Life Centre now finds its home in one of the most beautiful spaces on campus. Set into the escarpment, right on the Bruce Trail, the FLC is a peaceful escape from the bustle of the University campus. You can find us right at the end of Thistle hallway, headed south down the hill.

The FLC is a space for all students, and all student clubs – religious or otherwise. Part of the space is designated as a drop-in quiet study space, while the other half is primarily used for religious practices, i.e. prayer groups, Bible studies, and discussion groups.

The Brock University Masjid

The campus Masjid is a place of prayer and community gathering for Muslims. It serves as a spiritual and social hub, fostering a sense of belonging and reflection. The Masjid also provides a welcoming space for Muslim students, faculty, and staff to pray, reflect, and connect. It is designed to be inclusive, encouraging interfaith understanding and engagement. The Masjid is open to visitors who wish to learn more about Islam and Muslim practices respectfully and openly. The Masjid is adjacent to Market Hall, behind Learning Services (TH158).

Rita Welch Meditation Centre

The Rita Welch Meditation Centre is specifically dedicated to the use of everyone in the Brock community. It is intended to be a place for quiet meditation, reflection and prayer for both individuals and small groups. The room also hosts weekly Catholic Mass, meditation, times for Orthodox Liturgies and special Chaplain-led ecumenical services.
