A Chaplain is:

  • someone independent to talk to;
  • someone who takes your beliefs seriously, whether traditional faith, atheist or just confused;
  • someone with whom you can talk about what matters to you;
  • someone you can talk to about the purpose of life;
  • someone you can talk to in confidence;
  • someone who will help you along your spiritual journey;
  • someone with whom you can talk about your difficulties and innermost fears;
  • someone who will help you find answers to those 'ultimate' questions you always wanted to ask.
