Chaplain

Nothing tests religious beliefs more than many situations our Airmen face throughout the course of their service.

Providing pastoral care ministry and counseling to those of faith and those of no faith, Air Force chaplains are religious ministry professionals who support the spiritual resilience of our Airmen all over the world.

As spiritual leaders, chaplains are relied upon for faith and personal guidance.

They are also advocates for our Airmen and consult with leadership on moral, ethical and quality-of-life issues.
