Obeying Christ’s Great Commission by Providing Ordained Teaching Elders to Serve as Chaplains in Military and Civilian Organizations
About the Ministry
PRCC: Presbyterian and Reformed Commission on Chaplains and Military Personnel
You might initially think of military chaplains, but the chaplaincy is much more than that. It includes those who bring the Light of Christ into all kinds of hospitals, correctional facilities, hospice ministries, retirement communities, police and fire stations, and businesses. While you are reading this, PRCC chaplains are at work all over the world standing at a bedside, praying with a distraught couple, counseling an anxious Serviceman or woman, officiating at a graveside service, preaching Christ, or leading a Bible study in a faraway place.

PRCC History
On September 13, 1976 the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) answered in the affirmative an overture from its Pacific Presbytery requesting a study to consider whether a joint commission with “sister Presbyterian denominations” or a PCA chaplain commission under the denomination’s Mission to the U.S. (MUS, now MNA/Mission to North America) should be formed to represent and supervise PCA chaplains better than was possible through the chaplain commission of the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE), through whose good services the young denomination had been securing endorsements for its chaplains.
