Pathways to Serve

You want to serve as a chaplain but aren't sure where to start or what each setting requires. This guide presents four common paths, including an institution's own volunteer program and a chaplaincy team linked to your church. It includes forty questions to ask the institution, a church introduction letter template, and a list of requirements you may encounter, such as a pastoral letter, background check, and orientation training. Before paying for any document or course, you learn to check the official channel.
