A Chaplaincy Leader is someone you can talk to about spiritual or personal issues. They can help you find the answers within, give you advice or connect you with someone else who can help. They have lots of resources you can use, like books, videos, and CDs. A Chaplaincy Leader can help you find ways to get involved in your school or community. They lead prayer services, teach in religion classes and help develop the spiritual life of the school community.

Who is your STAHS Chaplaincy Leader?

Hello, my name is Dean Woodbeck and I am the Chaplaincy Leader at St. Thomas Aquinas High School. I have been in this role since 2004. I love the fact that I can accompany students and staff on their journey in faith. I have an office with comfy chairs and an open door to visitors for discussion and building of friendships. Stop by and say hi!

How You Can Get Involved

Students are always welcome and encouraged to participate in prayer services or mass. Speak with Mr. Woodbeck about how you can get involved by reading scripture or leading prayer.
