Chaplain (français)

Traditionally, a chaplain is a minister in a specialized setting, such as a priest,
pastor, rabbi imam, humanist chaplain or a lay representative of a worldview
attached to a secular institution such as a hospital, prison, military unit, police
department, university, or private chapel. 

Though originally the word "chaplain" referred to representatives of the Christian faith, it is now applied to men and women of other religions or philosophical traditions, such as in the case of the humanist chaplains serving with military forces in the Netherlands and Belgium. In recent years many lay individuals have received professional training in chaplaincy and are now appointed as chaplains in
schools, hospitals, universities, prisons and elsewhere to work alongside or
instead of official members of the clergy.

Canada. Ordained ministers spiritually, we are also authorized to perform all of the sacraments.

EMMI-FAICL, with our Partners, created a program that can meet the needs of all
those wishing to study Christianity and prepare for any type of ministry - including ordained by another organization or denomination, active members of the laity of the church, theologians, religious educators, chaplains, and lay people who would serve as the ordained minister. The Christian seminar program is not intended to be a substitute for an education, but it provides in-depth knowledge in the areas of Christian theology and history, and the ministerial ethics training in pastoral care, implementing care, disciples and the church.
