Making A Difference Worldwide Since 2006
GO AND BECOME A MINISTRY OF PRESENCE |
We are a ministerial licensing body, formed by a fellowship of chaplains and pastors united by a common purpose. Although some churches operate under our umbrella, our main priority is to broaden the chaplain's role and respond to individuals in crisis situations. The chaplain's ministry is one of presence, providing comfort and support to those experiencing grief and tragic loss. They step outside the confines of the church, venturing into the community to minister to people during their darkest moments, often when they need it most. For instance, following a natural disaster, a chaplain might provide emotional support to survivors, listening to their stories and offering words of comfort. In this way, the chaplain's ministry extends deep into a person's heart, sharing their life journey, and bringing them joy, hope, and a sense of affirmation - reminding them that they matter and are not alone.

Important notice: Unfortunately, we are forced to post this legal warning of counterfeit organizations and mills misusing our name for profit.
While there are many fine chaplain organizations to choose from, unscrupulous entities do what they do, for-profit and coattail off legitimate denominations and fellowships, misrepresenting themselves by using similar names, and stealing web content in an attempt to make their presence on the web appear legit. This notice informs the general public of organizations and credential mills on the internet misrepresenting themselves as Chaplain International, Inc. They do so by purchasing domain names that are similar or identical to CHAPLAINS INTERNATIONAL, such as www.chaplaininternational.com, www.chaplainsinternational.org, or incorporating Chaplains International into their overall name, rerouting web traffic to their domain for profit. THESE COUNTERFEIT ORGANIZATIONS ARE NOT AFFILIATED WITH OR ENDORSED BY CHAPLAINS INTERNATIONAL, INC. or its affiliates, and we are not responsible for their misrepresentation or actions. WE HAVE ISSUED THROUGH OUR LEGAL DEPARTMENT CEASE AND DESIST LETTERS TO THESE ORGANIZATIONS, some who have blatantly refused to cease use of the trademark name. We are the original Chaplains International founded in 2006 /501(c) (3)/, and our logo is a trademark.
