About the Chaplaincy Department

Chaplaincy Ministries functions under the administrative authority and guidelines of the Commission on Chaplains and Assemblies of God U.S. Missions. Al Worthley serves as the Chaplaincy Ministries Director. The Commission on Chaplains appraises candidates for all Institutional, Occupational, Military, and Veterans Affairs chaplaincy programs, grants ecclesiastical endorsements and approvals, and monitors the quality of its chaplains. These chaplains often minister where pastors and missionaries cannot go.
