Job Description:
ABOUT The Navy Chaplain Corps boasts more than 800 Navy
Chaplains from more than 100 different faith groups, including
Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist and many others. Each Chaplain
is also a Navy Officer, meaning each holds an important leadership
role. Chaplains offer everything from faith leadership, to personal
advice, to much-needed solace - all while living up to the guiding
principles of the Chaplain Mission: * Providing religious ministry
and support to those of your own faith* Facilitating the religious
requirements of those from all faiths* Caring for all
servicemembers and their families, including those subscribing to
no specific faith* Advising the command in ensuring the free
exercise of religion RESPONSIBILITIES As a Navy Chaplain, your job
spans a broad range of duties. You will support fellow
servicemembers during their most joyful moments, and during their
most difficult. Your responsibilities might include: * Conduct
worship services in a variety of settings* Perform religious rites
and ceremonies such as weddings, funeral services and baptisms*
Counsel individuals who seek guidance* Oversee religious education
programs, such as Sunday school and youth groups* Visit and provide
spiritual guidance and care to hospitalized personnel and/or their
family members* Train lay leaders who conduct religious education
programs* Promote attendance at religious services, retreats and
conferences* Advise leaders at all levels regarding morale, ethics
and spiritual well-being WORK ENVIRONMENT Navy Chaplains immerse
themselves in the daily lives of servicemembers. In what can be
best described as a ministry of presence, they are there to offer
guidance and insight in the moment, whenever they're needed. You
could provide support while on land or at sea, when presiding over
religious ceremonies on a base, or when conducting services from
the flight deck of an aircraft carrier. TRAINING & ADVANCEMENT
Those pursuing a Chaplain position are required to attend Officer
Development School (ODS) in Newport, RI. Upon completion, they
attend a seven-week course at the Naval Chaplaincy School and
Center, also in Newport, RI. Promotion opportunities are regularly
available but competitive and based on performance. It's also
important to note that specialized training received and work
experience gained in the course of service can lead to valuable
credentialing and occupational opportunities in related fields such
as family counseling and behavioral therapy. EDUCATION
OPPORTUNITIES Navy Chaplains typically continue their education
throughout their careers. Opportunities for continuing education
are available through the Advanced Education Program while being
paid full-time as a Navy Officer. Beyond professional credentials
and certifications, Navy Chaplains can advance their education by:
* Pursuing opportunities at institutions such as Naval Postgraduate
School (NPS)* Completing Joint Professional Military Education
(JPME) at one of the various service colleges Also keep in mind: If
you're in the process of starting or completing your graduate
theological degree, you could potentially enter the Navy Chaplain
Candidate Program (CCPO) as a student. QUALIFICATIONS &
REQUIREMENTS A candidate seeking to serve as a Navy Chaplain and
Officer must: * Have a bachelor's degree from a qualified four-year
undergraduate educational institution* Have a graduate degree in
