The war zone theatre of operations is especially important as are forward operating medical and surgical hospitals and aid stations. The Chaplain is in a unique position, as there may be multiple medical specialists, (though not in all area’s). The Chaplain however is the only one there to minister to the soul and to the men and women who are in dire need of that ministry, regardless of how religious they were or were not stateside. God be with all soldiers, marines,airmen, sailors, and coast guardsmen (these days, men and women) and with their families and friends who pray for them daily, as do many americans’ now as part of daily worship.
God bless them all.

For the soldiers serving this country and the people of Afghanistan, Chaplain Jacobs brings comfort and the real presence and love of God. Even in a war zone, the Creator God does not take sides; all are loved equally and completely. God bless, Chaplain Jacobs.
