Someone to talk to
Do you have something on your mind that you would 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 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, happy things, something that has happened in your life, relationships, or something you are worried about.
A deacon is not a therapist or psychologist, but someone you can talk to. A deacon is bound by confidentiality and will not tell others what she has heard, except in cases involving criminal matters or where children are being harmed.
You do not have to be religious or a member of the church, and there is no charge.
Sharing your thoughts and putting them into words can make life easier.
