CERTIFICATE IN CHAPLAINCY AND SPIRITUAL CARE
“When it was suggested that I take the Certificate in Chaplaincy and Spiritual Care program because of my new appointment as a Chaplain I reacted with – what for, I have been a Corps Officer for over 25 years there’s nothing they can teach me.’ How wrong could I have been?! I would strongly recommend that every Corps Officer should consider this as a necessary and vital learning experience. I wish I had taken these practical training courses years ago.”
Ray Braddock Graduate, Certificate in Chaplaincy and Spiritual Care program
