A chance to talk with a deacon
Do you have something on your mind that you’d like to share with someone who will listen?
Do you need someone to talk to? You can speak with a deacon here at the library. Her name is Ann Kristin, and she is a deacon in the Kampen and Vålerenga parishes.
A deacon is someone you can talk to, who listens when you have something on your mind that you need to share. It can be about anything: sad things, but also happy things. It might be about something that has happened in your life, your relationships, or something you’re worried about.
A deacon is not a therapist or psychologist, but someone you can talk to. A deacon has a duty of confidentiality and does not tell others what she has heard, as long as it does not concern criminal matters or situations where children are being harmed.
You don’t need to be a believer or a member of the church, and it’s free.
Sharing thoughts and words can make life easier.
