The world of business and industry is an integral part of the world that God loves.
Most people spend the bulk of their waking hours on the job.
Ministry in the workplace addresses the needs of both persons and systems. This necessitates an awareness that personal problems such as marriage or family conflict, addiction, financial or legal problems are brought to work with the individual. Added to this from the workplace are job stress, moral dilemmas, fear of termination and stress resulting from rapid change. This ministry recognizes that the workplace is a place to earn a living, and that it is filled with persons from diverse religious and non-religious persuasions. The unique contribution of the chaplain stems from the perspective that persons are of infinite worth regardless of status.
