Welcome to the world of Adventist Chaplaincy
You are about to enter the world of specialized ministries in the Seventh-day
Adventist Church. This is where trained male and female pastors minister
in the name of Christ and the church in diverse and challenging settings
such as correctional institutions, educational campuses, healthcare organizations
and the military.
Adventist Chaplaincy Ministries, a department of the world church, was
created in 1985 to nurture and develop these ministries. Today there are
hundreds of full-time Adventist professional chaplains in the world, and
hundreds more who serve in part-time and volunteer capacities. Chaplaincy
leaders are elected and appointed in church administrative offices worldwide
to oversee this important work.
In addition, in some divisions chaplains have formed professional associations
for fellowship and continuing education. This part of the ACM web site
will introduce you to this network of ministry professionals and their
work. Just click on the links below:
