"Thank you very much for putting the chaplaincy program together. I have often done chaplaincy type work in my personal life. This course helped me see different aspects, and point of views for different situations. Keeping God first is the only way to show love to our brothers and sisters. What I learned, helps in a practical to way to be an extension of Christ's hands and feet. Difficult situations can require difficult solutions.

I found the Vision Chaplaincy course to be incredibly insightful and timely. Community and culture are currently ripe with opportunities to provide emotional and spiritual support. The course content not only equips for effective chaplain ministry, but empowers confidence to effectively engage in a wide variety of ministry opportunities. In addition to critical material, the support from Vision ensures the overall experience is fulfilling and impactful. Overall, the course was personally inspiring, and has enhanced and strengthened my ministry as a fire and police chaplain.
