Protestant Chaplains
A Protestant chaplain in the Navy ministers in a truly pluralistic setting. Working with different faiths of the Christian tradition and facilitating for the needs of other religious communities, a Protestant chaplain has an interesting and diverse ministry.

Protestant chaplains in the Navy provide:

• Ministry of the Word by preaching to congregations of active-duty personnel and their families at a naval base, Marine Corps air station, or Coast Guard boot camp.
• Celebration of the Lord's Supper to a field unit on exercises in Korea;
• Bible studies for Marines in the field in Okinawa or Sailors onboard aircraft carriers in the Mediterranean;
• Counseling for troubled spouses overseas or classes preparing for a return and reunion of military personnel and their families after a deployment;
• Advice for commanding officers on moral and quality-of-life issues
• Crisis ministry at the time of death or national disaster.
