AG Chaplaincy is the invitation to pastor a group of people outside of

church walls. Like Jesus’ ministry in houses and streets and hillsides, you will be shoulder to shoulder with people in the moments they need His hope and truth. There

are five fields of chaplaincy within the Assemblies of God:

Emergency Services (serving Law Enforcement Officers, Fire Fighters, giving

Death notifications to families, Natural Disasters, Tragedies, Accidents and all urgent situations where a chaplain is requested)

Military (Serving Military personnel in all branches of service and their families)

Healthcare (serving in Hospice/Home care, Hospital, Nursing Home & all other

Medical Facilities where a Chaplain is requested)

Correctional (prison staff and inmates) Specialized (Specialized Chaplaincy ministry can be literally on a mountaintop

ministering to mountain climbers or in a motorcycle club, ministering to

bikers. It could be ministering in an organization of 100 employees or a

racetrack with thousands of people. Specialized Chaplaincy is as original as

your creativity and passion and as limitless as your calling and vision.)
