CHAPLAINCY

Chair – Tony Jasper

The Chaplaincy Department is a critical link between how we meet the Event participants medical needs with spiritual needs. Volunteers in this department will be interspersed within all areas of the event as well as the final check-out station. All exiting Event participants will have the opportunity to speak with the appropriate person from this department concerning their spiritual health and as appropriate guide them to opportunities for a greater awareness and decision making for Christ. Volunteers will also be providing care packets to all event participants.
