​

IV. Chaplains of the International Federal Police, Inc:

​

Although the word "chaplain" does not appear in the Bible, the responsibilities associated with it are indeed found in the Scriptures.

​

The most important role of a chaplain is to provide religious services, spiritual guidance, and counseling to those in need. For instance, a chaplain working in a hospital or palliative care center offers spiritual counseling and guidance to patients, their families, and even the hospital staff.

​

Traditionally, a chaplain is a clergy member or lay representative of a religious tradition affiliated with a secular institution such as a hospital, prison, military unit, school, union, company, police department, fire department, university, or private institution. They often have a designated chapel or space for religious services.
