The Rev. Dr. Patricia Murphy, ecclesiastical endorser and American Baptist Home Mission Societies’ national coordinator of Chaplaincy and Specialized Ministries, invites chaplains, pastoral counselors, spiritual directors, and other specialized ministers to participate in “Sacred Conversations,” a time of sharing for American Baptist spiritual caregivers. This time will allow exploration of conversations with care recipients during the pandemic during “Imagine,” American Baptist Churches USA’s 2021 Biennial Mission Summit: An Online Experience.

The National Network of American Baptist Chaplains, Pastoral Counselors Clergy, and Specialized Ministers is a professional support and networking organization developed and sponsored by American Baptist Home Mission Societies.  In order to encourage local networking and support, the association is divided into nine networks, coordinated by a liaison.

Membership in the network is open to all American Baptist chaplains, pastoral counselors, spiritual directors, and specialized ministers—board certified or non-certified—who support our mission. All specialized ministry professionals are welcome!
