Benjamin J. Pasiak Receives Certification

Mr. Pasiak stated the IFOC Chaplain course was impressive in its professionalism and Chaplains Larry and Kathy Burden are very knowledgeable in the curriculum. This is by far one of the best courses I have taken in my law enforcement career. I would recommend the I.F.O.C. training to anyone who feels the call to be a Chaplain.

The IFOC is a nonprofit organization, providing training, credentialing, ordination, networking, and deployment in the varied areas of chaplaincy. The IFOC interfaces with both the secular and ministry worlds for the purpose of promoting tolerance and understanding, as well as, provide professional, trained and dedicated chaplains in the various fields of need. IFOC's purpose is to "Train (and equip) the saints (the body of Christ) for the work of the ministry" The work of the chaplain differs greatly from the work of the pastorate. The pastor cares for the spiritual needs of the congregation; whereas, the chaplain cares for the needs of the secular world as well.
