Snapshot of Ministry
Extra Mile Chaplains exists to walk alongside men wanting to go the extra mile in life by offering spiritual direction, pastoral care, and relational mentoring.
Our goal is to help men move toward a more fulfilling and impactful life. A big part of what we do is working with Fire and Police Departments to provide a chaplain for their men.
