Uncle CF Needs You!!

[BreadAlone]

ATTN Pastors,

It's a regrettable saddness that their are NO Lutheran Pators on our CF Chaplaincy Team!! Every time someone needs advice and guidance, they must go to someone who is NOT an ordained Lutheran Minister!! Can you imagine this!?

Well, it turns out that the upper Staff is seeking new recruits to join the Chaplaincy Team. So, if you're interested in serving the Lord in this capacity, Post here or PM myself or one of the Advisors.

Thank you!

I am not an ordained Lutheran Pastor yet... but in 9-12 months it should be so.

Could you say more about what is involved? How much time must be devoted to CF?

I was sure this was going to be a moderator recruitment.

We could always use more of those, too!!

This is not the official guidelines (I couldn't find any up-to-date!)

But generally, any Staff member is required to be online for at least 1 hour 4 days a week. A Chaplain moderates and answers questions in the "Ask a Chaplain" forum. Other than that, they do Pastoral things for Staff and Members alike.

I'll see if I can get anything more specific..

Also, one also could become a Chaplain if he has a License for Ministry.

I've been trained and certified to work in the children's ministry. Does that work?

License for ministry in what sense? Different denominations have different standards. I could have been a pastor in many evangelical churches years ago, for example.

That would be appreciated. I don't have tons of time, especially going into my final year, but this is something I might consider especially at 4 hours a week.

This is what they say ...

Hello,

We need more chaplains to work in the Ask a Chaplain forum and to also make their presence known and felt throughout the forum.

Catholic Priests, Orthodox Priests, Licensed or Ordained Protestant Ministers are all welcome.

You won't have to work a lot of hours we just want a good representation of all the major denominations if possible.

Please send a pm to one of our Advisers to apply

Thank you and God bless.

I tried to get more info, but I was getting no response.

I would PM Arborvita for further info, RevCowboy, and to also to see if you qualify. That goes for anyone interested.

I had once inquired about being a CF chaplain and was told I needed to submit my certificate of ordination.

I can understand that. Folks can say anything they want about themselves on the internet, with very few checks and balances. If I were going to talk to a chaplain online, I'd want to know that someone had at least checked to see if he really were one.

 

[RevCowboy]

Perhaps I will consider it again in the 12 months then. I probably really don't have much time in my final year of school anyways.

I was actually going to ask you if you were interested...

Are doing it?

It might be interesting to try out.
