Military Chaplains

The LCMS is looking to start a ministry in your midst to all veterans, both those who are members of the church, and those in your neighborhood who are not members of a church. Barnabas Chapters are a place where military and their families can gather to explore God's Word and to get important news and information about issues close to the military. Our meetings have information on Tricare, PTSD, military children, and so much more.
