The Original Vision of the Office of the Armed Forces and Federal Ministries “The real objective of the military chaplaincy [of this Church] is not the welfare of bishops or priests or of the armed forces as an institution, but the care of the flock of Christ – men, women, and children – whose lives are lived in the military establishment around the world.”
(The Living Church, First Sunday of Advent, 1 December 1963)
Episcopal Church of the Nativity Pastor Chad McCabe is not only committed to his church community in Northborough, but continues his ministry as a chaplain in the Massachusetts Army National Guard.
Priests in the Armed Forces, Veteran’s Hospitals, and with the Federal Bureau of Prisons minister daily to God’s people in thrilling locations and in demanding situations…
We are Episcopal Priests… following Jesus into loving, liberating, and life-giving relationship with God alongside the military and veterans. Chaplain Martha Kester serves as a rector of a parish and as a chaplain with her National Guard unit.
Naval Special Warfare Center Chaplain Lt. Cmdr. Paul Rodgers prays with a student during an individualized Easter service at NSW Center in Coronado, CA. Rodgers performed 32 of these services so students could focus on their faith and spiritual health while following CDC guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
