Network Support
Our aim is to care for people at their point of need, by communicating the love of Christ in a compassionate and practical way. Equipped with theological training and skills in pastoral care, chaplains minister to people facing deeply distressing and traumatic situations, enabling them to better cope with periods of instability.
If you are interested in becoming a Chaplain then we would love to assist you in your journey. If it is training that you require, Chaplaincy Australia in partnership with Alphacrucis College (AC) can provide you with Chaplaincy specific training that will equip you for this ministry.
If you are already a Chaplain and active within your community but looking for a Network of Chaplains to connect with then please make contact with your State office.
We are committed to supporting you through:
- Ongoing support and encouragement through connection with a Regional Chaplain
- Regular professional development days
