Alliance Chaplains Network
Chaplains are ‘hands on’ when it come to engaging people in need of comfort, love, direction, healing, hope, and encouragement. These versatile men and women can be found in a wide variety of settings including hospitals, nursing homes, corrections (prison), military, corporate sector, Emergency services, schools and more. They represent Christ in the midst of every day life and in extraordinary circumstances, quickly attending to the needs presented.
Chaplains are theologically educated and specifically trained to minister out in the community, often beyond the reach of the traditional church. They provide pastoral care in community and government organizations and the private sector on a full-time, part-time, or volunteer basis –praying, counselling, worshipping and simply being available to the community they’re a part of. Alliance chaplains come along side of people of all cultures and religions who are hurting, broken, lost or searching.
The Association of Alliance Chaplains (AAC) connects its members with one another as well as with the Districts and the National Ministry Centre.
