THE
CHOICES YOU MAKE NOW WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOR ETERNITY
John
14:12
-13 - I tell you the
truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have
done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the
Father. You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it,
so that the Son can bring glory to the Father.
Chaplains
go to where the people in need are. Life experiences are vital
and very important in the life of a chaplain and will always be
taken into consideration. For that reason Chaplain Fellowship
places a lot of value on life experiences. As
a ministry of presence we understand that the Lord ordains, we
simply recognizes what He has already done and provide our members
with the legal documentation and credentials needed to satisfy
the laws and requirement of the public at large. Members of Chaplain
Fellowship Ministries receive their ordination, license and certifications
as a benefit of membership in accordance with their qualifications
and experience. Members are ordained and licensed as chaplains
and ministers!
Note:
If you have any questions regarding the legal status of Chaplain
Fellowship Ministries please
