Tri-Service Chaplaincy-Realities of Conflict

During the course, examples are used from World War 1 and World War 2 to illustrate chaplaincy practice and teach new chaplains how to perform their duties in a war fighting context. The Tri-Service aspect of the training assists in highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of the different approaches.

This course is a practical experiential learning experience.  It builds upon the classroom learning and aids the transition to everyday chaplaincy.

You will learn:

• moral chaplaincy (ethics, core values, Just War)
• pastoral chaplaincy (models of ministry, theology of ministry and remembrance)
• spiritual chaplaincy (services of prayer and remembrance, visits to St Georges and the Menin Gate)
• tri-service chaplaincy (the need to work together on and off operations)

This is Part 2 of single service mandatory initial training for new chaplains and is to be completed within 2-years of first posting.
