The Funeral Home Chaplain

Part II: Reaching out to clients and community

The Funeral Home Chaplain—Part II: Reaching out to clients and community discusses how chaplains, through their specialized skills, can help families who are grieving the death of a loved one. It explains how a chaplain working at a funeral home can serve as a liaison to the religious community, help individuals who are not affiliated with a religious community and fulfill specific work in a specialized ministry. The article was written by Reverend Dr. Richard B. Gilbert, executive director of The World Pastoral Care Center, consultant, speaker, author and Board Certified Chaplain.
