The beginning of the 21St century has been a time of instability and military conflict. Marines and Sailors are deployed around the world in harm's way. More than ever, they need chaplains and Religious Program Specialists operating as effective religious ministry teams to be there with them. Our servicemembers must be afforded the religious freedom they so courageously defend. Chaplains and Religious Program Specialists are essential members of any command staff. They fulfill invaluable staff roles that enable our commanders to fulfill their duties and accomplish all their missions. To this end, they must be prepared and trained with the most up-to-date and relevant knowledge so that we may provide our commanders accurate and timely advice. This publication is founded on the operational ministry principles established in MCWP 6-12, Religious Ministry Support in the U.S.
