September 11, 2001 was a tragic event for our nation. Even as we mourned we learned how important it was to have the human assets to cope with major incidents. When Katrina created the tragedy it did in New Orleans and adjacent areas Chaplaincy was there. It is with pride and thanksgiving that we
celebrate and support the first responders in police, fire, and medical services that stand at the front lines in our nation.
Every event that challenges our human family is an event
that shapes our Chaplaincy.
The Chaplain's Tool Box
Our KCSO Chaplains respond
to the requests of Police and Sheriff's
Departments in the USA and Canada to inform
family members in King County of the death of
relatives. As the first line of communication
to these families we attempt a timely response
to the request having accurate information we
can share with the family. After making contact
with the family we make certain that the family
communicate with the agency who requested
notification.
