Let this Community Chaplain tell his story of how rewarding it was for him to minister to others at a coffee shop. Beegee Brown explains that reading the Caring Directions book led to discussions on other Christian books and then salvation for two young people. |

| Keith Travis
Director of Chaplaincy, NAMB
Keith is responsible for over 3,000 chaplains through the Southern Baptist Convention. He feels that well trained community based chaplains can play an increasing role in the outreach of local churches that can no longer be done by pastors and ministers alone. |

| Ginny Bradshaw
Crossroads Fellowship, NC
When Ginny Bradshaw was asked by the leadership of her church to build relationships with local businesses in their community, she was ecstatic. After studying some of the materials from the Community Chaplains of America program, she felt confident reaching out to over 250 businesses. Ginny had the opportunity to pray with many of them, tell others more about Crossroads Fellowship and had 37 people express an interest in attending her church. She is now even more excited about the opportunity to study and apply the resources in the Community Chaplain Empowerment Kit with other church members and prepare them for spiritual caregiving in their home communities. |

The L&M Companies, NC
As a Sunday school teacher and business owner, Larry Otto knows how important it is to be responsive to the needs of others. He had no idea that the "Suicide" CD in the Empowerment Audio Series in the kit would equip him for the phone call he got one night from a friend’s wife at Sunday school. |

| Lynn Sayne

When Lynn visited a friend in the hospital, he was asked what Community Chaplains do. This led to an immediate opportunity to pray with a terminal cancer patient at her bedside and lead her and three family members to Christ. Additionally, he was able to minister to others in the intensive care waiting room who were dealing with serious health issues in their families. |
