Meet Our Chaplains


A simple definition of a chaplain is, “a minister in the workplace.” In other words, Chaplains have a church which is actually outside the walls of the church building. It’s called the community. Chaplains serve people of all faiths. A chaplain at the local and national level has Constitutional protection, whereas a pastor does not. An ordained Chaplain is recognized by the government, whereas an ordained pastor is not because of the separation of church and state issue. The chaplain’s ministry is to be a bridge between the secular and the sacred.
