Welcome to Chaplaincy Services

For every feared thing there is an opposing hope that encourages us.   ~Umberto Eco

When you or a loved one is ill or undergoing a medical procedure, you may find strength in sharing your concerns with a chaplain. We provide compassionate spiritual and emotional support to people of all faiths. Whether you are a patient, family member, friend, staff member, or student we are ready to assist in your time of need. Our staff of multifaith chaplains provides coverage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, whenever the need arises.
