As a Religious Program Specialist (RP), you're more than a facilitator of religious services. To our Sailors, you are the listening ear, helping hand and friendly face they may need to get through tough times.

This includes duties like preparing devotional materials, organizing faith-based events, maintaining religious records and serving as a source of personal security for Navy Chaplains.
The role of a Religious Program Specialist is about bringing Sailors together and helping to support their mental health through faith, whether they're religious or not. From suicide prevention, to relationship advice, to self-esteem issues, you will make sure your fellow Sailors always have someone to talk to and a solution to their problems.

Chaplain
Covenant Theological Seminary
Chaplain job in Quarryville, PA
Quarryville Presbyterian Retirement Community is seeking a Full-Time Chaplain to effectively lead the spiritual affairs of our organization and oversee the pastoral needs of the community. The ideal candidate will demonstrate a contagious enthusiasm for our "Call to Excellence" and desire to bring our mission to life for residents and team members:
To provide for the spiritual, physical, emotional and social needs of our residents through high quality facilities, services and personal care in a manner faithful to the Bible and honoring our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Who We Are
QPRC is a non-profit continuing care retirement community founded in 1949 with the conviction that the church has a responsibility before God to provide for aging individuals. Nestled in farm country twenty-five minutes south of Lancaster, PA, the community today includes residential cottages, apartments, personal care, memory care, and skilled care. We have about 320 full and part-time QPRC team members and serve over 450 residents across all levels of care. Our community was and continues to be a testimony to God's faithfulness and grace as we live with a purpose: the glory of God.
Distinctives of the Chaplain Role
The chaplain position at Quarryville is different from other chaplain roles: it is more relational than clinical chaplains in hospital settings, and it does not require services be held for other religious groups as military chaplains might. In many ways, Quarryville chaplains are like a university campus pastor who ministers to a wide range of worldviews, from committed believers to atheists and everyone in between. Shepherding in this environment requires that the chaplain serve as pastor, apologist, evangelist, and missionary. The chaplain needs to be generous in engagement with individuals, gracious toward all, and appreciative of all true believers and Bible-believing denominations.
Primary Responsibilities (including, but not limited to):
* Develops and maintains continuity of the overall spiritual life of the community through the coordination of biblical programs and personal relationships
* Oversees and/or lead worship services, Bible studies, prayer meetings, vespers, and other spiritual activities for residents
* Provides spiritual and moral guidance to residents, family members, and team members
* Prioritizes visitation and offer counseling, as appropriate
* Provides leadership to the Assistant Chaplain and the Choir Director
* Manages the financial resources of the department
* Holds the Presbyterian heritage firmly but also graciously with all believers, keeping the gospel at the center of all encounters
Requirements:
* College and Seminary Degrees
* Ordained Teaching Elder in the Presbyterian Church in America or the Orthodox Presbyterian Church
* Minimum of ten (10) years of pastoral ministry experience that demonstrates the ability to preach, counsel, and offer grief support
* Personal spiritual maturity and sensitivity
* The ability to build relationships of trust, respect, and accountability
* Ascribes to and follows the theological standards and requirements listed in the Article IV of the corporate By-Laws*
* All activity of the Corporation shall be in accordance with the purpose as outlined in Article IV of the Articles of Incorporation, "to erect and maintain facilities for the care of the aged and to conduct other
benevolent activities needful for the cause of Christ and the advancement of His Church". The supreme standard of the Corporation shall be the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as being the Word of God, the only infallible rule of faith and practice. The Corporation also adopts as standards, subordinate to the Word of God, the Confession of Faith, the Larger Catechism and the Shorter Catechism, formulated by the Westminster Assembly, as setting forth the system of truth taught in the Holy Scriptures."
QPRC Offers:
* Comprehensive benefit package for team members and dependents that includes medical, dental, vision, flexible spending, generous paid time off plus holidays, and 401(k) plus match
