I spend my time with the police officers and firefighters and dispath personel of Washington county, Oregon. I am available to them for counsel and advice on personal and professional things. I am called to scenes where they think I can be of assistance, usually involving a death. I deal with the family and the M.E.
I also do CISM. This a multi-component approach to stress management usually related to traumatic incidents. The whole purpose is to reduce the occurance of PTSD.
I was at Ground Zero--Ground Hero for ten days December 2-13, 2001 at the invitation of the PAPD. I was with PAPD officers and NYPD dispatch.
I have served churches, but serving as a chaplain for law enforcement is hard, exhausting, no set hours, and the best ministry I can be doing.
I am also involved in singles ministry. I am providing leadership for Westside Singles Ministry. You can find more infomation about this ministry on my website. I have been involved in singles ministry since 1990 including serving with the Mission Portland Singles Network from 1995-1999. I directed the Winema Singles Conference in 1998 and 1999.
