[Faith-Talk] chaplaincy

[Justin Heard]

Good morning Ashley.

I am still earning my MDiv degree. I hope to start chaplaincy training 
next summer. I am currently working on my application.

There do not seem to be many blind certified chaplains. However, I have 
talked to some who completed CPE units and they had a positive 
experience. It seems like securing a residency is much more difficult.
