What is a WELS Chaplain?
A WELS Chaplain is a pastor or a lay worker, appointed to perform religious functions in several categories of public institutions. Chaplains, therefore, are distinguished from parish pastors/laymen because their chaplaincy is performed in public institutions such as police/fire departments, military installations/units, jails/prisons, nursing homes/assisted living facilities, hospitals/clinics, or anywhere else there is a need.
