CFMI MISSION,VISION, PURPOSE & OBJECTIVES STATEMENT

Galatians 6:4- You should each judge your own conduct. If it is good, then you can be proud of what you yourself have done, without having to compare it with what someone else has done.

Purpose: To ensure that chaplains can defend and provide for the freedom of religion and conscience that the Constitution guarantees all chaplains and those whom they serve.

Statement of Faith: Chaplain Fellowship Ministries members believe in, profess and adhere to the following Christian truths:
(1) I believe the Bible is the inherent, infallible Word of God in the original languages and the absolute standard for moral conduct;

(3) I believe in the Lordship of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
(4) I believe I am saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
(5) I understand that Chaplain Fellowship Ministries is a Christ centered, Christ rooted ministry of presence.

Objectives:
(1) To empower Chaplains with the legal documentation required to serve in chaplaincy a ministry of presence.
(1) To honor and secure the spiritual beliefs and religious liberties of Chaplains and those whom they serve.
(2) To enable all Chaplains to serve to the full extent of their God given rights to follow their calling in ministry.
(3) To nurture and support an environment that protects, honors and cherishes the role of Chaplains in American culture.
(4) To recruit, train, certify, license and ordain chaplains and ministers to meet the legal requirement required by the secular world as members      of the ministry.    

Mission: Chaplain Fellowship Ministries recruits, trains, certifies, license, ordains and legally empowers men and women as Chaplains and Ministers to serve in their chosen field of ministry. CFMI does this by providing qualified Chaplains and Ministers with the legal documentation they need to serve as chaplains and Ministers in their own ministry of presence. This will legally enables CFMI Chaplains and Ministers to respond in their own communities when a crisis or disaster strikes. Chaplain Fellowship also recruits chaplains for the United States military, hospice, nursing homes, Law Enforcement, Federal agencies, Fire Departments, Emergency services and community ministries.

DISASTER RESPONSE CHAPLAINS: CFMI recruits and trains chaplains as disaster responder chaplains and emergency services chaplains. Trained chaplains respond within their own communities or where ever disasters strike. Such as hurricane Katrina, hurricane Rita, hurricane Ike, hurricane Lee, The Virginia Tech Shooting and the Fort Hood Terrorist Attack. CFMI Chaplains have responded to all of these Disasters and many others.

TRAINING: CFMI offers affordable training to Chaplains and Ministers in different fields of ministry. Such as disaster response, crisis intervention, hospice, nursing home, public safety, pastoral crisis counseling, Cultural Sensitivity and Spirituality, prison ministry and community chaplaincy and Bullying. Other courses are added as time allows.

DEPARTMENTAL CHAPLAINS: CFMI recruits and train Chaplains and Ministers to serve in Police Department, Fire Department, Federal and State Agencies, Prisons, Nursing Homes, City and County Jails, Drug Rehab Centers, Domestic Violence Shelters, Veterans Counseling Centers and Community Street Ministries. Many state and federal agencies are starting to see and realize the value of having chaplaincy programs. Chaplains trained in crisis intervention, anger management and domestic violence are very valuable to police departments, fire departments and emergency services.

SCHOLARSHIPS: Chaplain Fellowship Ministries believes that chaplains must have the proper specialized training in order to respond to the public at large in specialized ministries. CFMI offers scholarships to members every year for some of the training programs that chaplains need to work in their chosen fields of ministry within their communities.
