Catholic mass for international students

Relief mit Kelch und Hostie
You would like to celebrate Holy Mass in English. Unfortunately, as a Catholic university community, we do not offer any services in English at the moment. But you can take advantage of the offers of the anglophone community in Koblenz. They offer a eucharistic celebration every Sunday at 4:00 p.m., namely:
  • every 1st, 3rd and 4th Sunday in St. Antonius (Brenderweg 17-21, 56070 Koblenz-Lützel)
  • every 2nd Sunday in Pilgerheim Haus Schoenstatt (Hillscheider Str. 5, 56179 Vallendar)

Approach

Since many students are currently dependent on financial support and funds are limited, funds can usually only be approved once and only to a limited extent.

If you are an international student and find yourself in a financial emergency, please contact us to arrange a consultation.
