About My Ministry
I serve as the 210th Battalion Chaplain of the Mississippi State Guard 2nd Brigade. As a chaplain I seek to lead my fellow guard members by example. I attempt to influence the members of the MSSG through words of encouragement and seek to lead them to a committed relationship with Christ. I strive to assist the members of my battalion in matters of moral and spiritual development.
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 are established by the using agency and the Chaplains Commission, SBC. These qualification requirements vary according to the type of chaplaincy involved but all are expected to meet a high level of ministerial competence.
