Danish Seamen's Church in Singapore
The Danish Seamen’s Church in Singapore (DSCS) was founded in 1984, as a branch of the Danish Seamen’s Church in Foreign Ports and as part of the Danish Evangelical Lutheran National Church. In January 2004 it became part of a new organisation DSUK, Danish Seamens Church Abroad.
The objective of DSCS is “to provide church services, ministrations and spiritual and practical assistance to residents in and seafarers and other visitors to Singapore, all of whom shall be of Danish nationality”.
All year round, the Danish Seamen's Church hosts church services and holidays such as Easter, Christmas and other traditional holidays. The Seamen's Church offers baptisms, confirmations, weddings and other commemorations in relation to Denmark and Singapore.
DSCS is an independent, non-profit organization that relies mainly on voluntary contributions from private sources in Denmark and Singapore. Additional income is created through bazaars, lotteries and other fundraising activities. The large amount of support creates the basis for an active church and an attractive place to meet for Danes in Singapore.
The Danish Seamen's Church is located at Mount Faber. From there, the harbour and the ships, which the port chaplain and other employees often visit with Danish books, news papers or other amenities and a familiar chat, are not far away.
The church offers events weekly and you´ll always get the lates info via our newsletter or by following us on social media.
