The Chaplain program is a non profit, citizen supported organization. The Chaplain is not paid by the Sheriff’s Office, Whitman County, nor does it receive any funds from Washington State. It is solely supported by donations.

 

The Chaplain has daily contact with the personnel at the Sheriff’s Office, including the jail staff and inmates. He is often on traumatic scenes offering assistance to the injured survivors and family members. At times he is called to the scene of a fatal vehicle collision, aircraft or boat incident, unattended death, suicide, drowning, or a domestic violence incident.  He makes death notifications to next of kin in assistance to the Coroner’s office. He works with the State Patrol, Deputies, city and town police officers and fire departments. He is part of the Whitman Community Hospital Chaplain staff and on call Emergency Room Chaplain. 

Please pray for safety for law enforcement officers, fire personnel, and hospital personnel.

 

Thank you for your continued prayers and support!
