Looking after athletes
Tyrolean priest (29) on Olympic duty in Paris
He is already in the Olympic village in Paris and is looking forward to his mission. Johannes Lackner (29), who was born in Kitzbühel, is a chaplain in St. Johann and has been nominated as an Olympic chaplain for the Summer Games in Paris, and subsequently also for the Special Olympics and Paralympics.
This is not his first assignment in this role. Lackner therefore knows that spiritual support is always in demand in top-class sport. Tailored to the training schedules of Austrian athletes, Lackner also wants to celebrate a church service several times a week.
For me, everyone who takes part is a winner. They are all great role models.
Johannes Lackner
Peace away from the hustle and bustle of the Olympics
"This can mean peace and quiet for the participants in the hustle and bustle of the Olympic Games and give them a chance to take their minds off things," the Tyrolean is convinced.
"Everyone is a great role model"
He wants to be there for everyone so that they can share their tension, disappointment and joy with him. Lackner on the athletes: "For me, everyone who takes part is a winner. They are all great role models."
