Chaplain Fellowship Ministries Christian Chaplain License Ordination Certification and Ministry Endorsement


 

James 1:22 Do not deceive yourselves by just listening to his word; instead, put it into practice. 23 If you listen to the word, but do not put it into practice you are like people who look in a mirror and see themselves as they are. What do you see when you look into the mirror dear friends?

We would like to welcome you to the official web site of Chaplain Fellowship Ministries™. We are a very real hard core one of a kind ministry of presence, with over four hundred and fifty members from around the world. We come from all faith groups, ethnic, gender and educational backgrounds, molded after the Ministry of Jesus.

Chaplain Fellowship Ministries is a faith based Christ centered non-denominational ministry of presence that offers the every day hard working man or woman an opportunity to serve in the position of an ordained Chaplain through specific chaplaincy programs, ecclesiastical endorsements and certifications in their chosen field of ministry, thereby, allowing any one who feels God has called them to minister at some level as a ordained Chaplain. Our Mission is to ordain, qualify, equip, train and recognize those seeking Ministry ordination, endorsement and certification documentation as ministers, pastors, priests and chaplains.

We know by building and strengthening our communities and proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus to the world at large we are doing what He has called us to do. Jesus has poured out His Spirit upon us, we are to help the lost who are seeking salvation, we are to help those seeking healing for the spirit, soul and body with the anointing that rests upon each of us in the name of Jesus.

Matthew 25:21: “His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.”

Chaplain Fellowship Ministries is dedicated to recruiting those who have been called into the Lord's ministry of presence. Please remember it takes all of us to get the job done, just as Jesus recruited many from different backgrounds including educational. It does not take a college graduate to walk into a biker bar full of 1%ers, it takes some one who has been there, it takes an hard-core ordained biker Chaplain. Nursing home chaplaincy or ministry takes a chaplain who is ordained and has compassion, understanding, and the love of Jesus in their hearts. It requires someone who knows how to listen, and many times someone to just be there with them when they are dying, the thought of dying alone is very scary for senior citizens.

For all those who want to be a military chaplain, you must have a Masters, no way around it period. If you want to work in a hospital as a paid chaplain, you have to go through a CPE program. For those who work as street chaplains you need to be street wise, who better than those who have been there. Many times in hospice chaplaincy it is an OJT type situation. There are many different types of chaplaincy and ways for chaplains to serve in our Lord's ministry of presence.

James 1:27 What God the Father considers to be pure and genuine religion is this: to take care of orphans and widows in their suffering and to keep oneself from being corrupted by the world.

Those who work in market place type chaplaincy or ministry will have to have what is required by those who employ them. For those who have been called into hospital chaplaincy, Law Enforcement Chaplancy and other specialized ministries, you do need training according to what type of ministry you are involved in. There are many ministry's and chaplaincy programs, they all have different requirements, in other words many need specialized training, many don't, many need college degrees, many don't. IT TAKES ALL OF US! Just like it did in the days that Jesus walked the earth. Being called and ordained into the ministry comes from God out of the love of our Lord and savior! Not any mortal man or church.

The picture on the right is a very real person and the best example we have to prove the need for nursing home chaplains. When chaplains make regular visits to nursing homes, it cuts down on this type of abuse. No all nursing homes have this type of abuse, but there are many, many that do. This little lady is a child of God, and there is no doubt that there is a special place in Heaven for her. This type of abuse is a disgrace, and we as chaplains CAN do something about it, if we will just get out there and do it. If you don't know what to do visit our nursing home page. If you don't want to be a chaplain or minister fine, please just do something in your life to make a difference in the lives of those in need. You would not be here, unless you have already been thinking about it, or feel the Lord has called you into His Ministry.

Pro 11:25 - 31- Be generous, and you will be prosperous. Help others, and you will be helped. Those who are good are rewarded here on earth, so you can be sure that wicked and sinful people will be punished.

When you begin the work as a chaplain you can be confident that God, who has begin a good work in you, will complete it. Please never let anyone tell you that you are not good enough for the ministry, God does the calling and the ordaining, no man has the right to tell you any different. We all need Jesus as our Lord and Savior in our everyday lives. He is the One who can lift us above the degrading forces of evil in our world, that tries to tell us we are not good enough. It is Jesus who holds all things together, including our lives. Become a member and receive your God given right to ordination and license as a member of the clergy. Take a leap of faith, and watch your whole world, and the way you see thing, literally transform before your very eyes.

Those Who Share In His Suffering Shall Also Share In His Glory! We believe all Christians have been given spiritual gifts to fulfill their callings. Ministry ordination is a spiritual gift and calling directly from God, and is not to be taken lightly. God chooses to call who he will, or to use any instrument, to accomplish His will. Jesus said, "I will build My church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it." Never let no man stop you from doing what you have been called to do. When you act upon your calling, you then become a member of HIS Church. If you have done your best, God will do the rest!

Gal 6:4 You should each judge your own conduct. If it is good, then you can be proud of what you yourself have done, without having to compare it with what someone else has done.

Becoming ordained as a Chaplain and minister will take you far beyond your wildest imagination, and it will make you a much larger person in the spirit of the Lord, than you ever dreamed you could be. As children of God if we see someone in need and have the ability to help them and don't, how can we say that the love of Jesus abides in us? Never forget that what we go after here on earth, determines where we go in the hereafter. We make a living from what we get, but we make a life from what we give. Anyone can give without loving, but no one can love without giving.

A wise man once said that our decisions determine our direction, and our direction determines our destiny. Let your direction be true and let your destiny be one of greatness for the glory of God's kingdom. No one knows when Jesus will return, maybe it will be today, or maybe in a 1000 years. His return is something we have no control over. The only control we have in this life is this moment in time, so let us live every moment for the glory of His kingdom, and as if it is our last.
