The modern day ministry of Chaplaincy
‘Going out’ into the ordinary places - to share God’s love!
We have a vision to ‘saturate’ entire city centres with chaplains, who support and reach many 1000s of people, working directly in multiple organisations, businesses and communities.
We’re motivated by our Christian faith to offer a non-judgemental, listening ear to anyone who needs it. We’re passionate about the opportunity this provides to GO into environments the church can’t reach.
A R E Y O U ?
Whether you’re just dipping a toe or you’re ready to jump in, we are here to help on your chaplaincy journey.
Here’s the plan:
