About My Family
Hello, my name is Mike Yates. I have been in ministry for more than 20 years. My wife passed of pancreatic cancer, so it is my daughter, my puppy (Sage) and me. I enjoy sports, reading and hiking.
About My Ministry
I am an SBC-endorsed disaster relief chaplain with the Oklahoma Baptists. I have primarily served in youth ministry, but in the last few years I have followed God into chaplaincy.
SBC Chaplaincy
Chaplaincy is a vital frontline ministry and extension of the local church. Chaplains reach the lost among the thousands of men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces, correctional facilities, healthcare settings, public safety, disaster relief sites, and corporate environments. SBC Chaplains care for the broken, offer hope to the hopeless, and advance the gospel of Jesus Christ in hard-to-reach places.
The qualifications expected of a Southern Baptist applying for endorsement as a chaplain or counselor are established by their institution and the Chaplains Commission, SBC. These qualification requirements vary according to the type of chaplaincy or counseling ministry involved but all are expected to meet a high level of ministerial competence.
