The Marsh Institute works collaboratively to equip, support, and advocate for chaplains in diverse and global settings thereby enhancing the competency and effectiveness of chaplains worldwide. The Marsh Institute for Chaplains is a religious nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization building on the five and half years of grounding work of the Marsh Center for Chaplain Studies.

“The Marsh Institute collaborates to equip, support, and advocate for chaplains in diverse and global settings, enhancing chaplains’ competency and effectiveness. We affirm that a chaplain’s work should be anchored in the holy calling to care for and serve individuals from all walks of life. God’s unconditional love informs our belief that chaplains and their ministries should be characterized by mutual respect, dignity, and compassion for everyone. Therefore, we support chaplains from all backgrounds, recognizing our global community’s diversity of cultures, convictions, and experiences.”

Dr. Jim Browning, Executive Director and Chairman of the Board, January, 2025

Our initiatives include:

  • Collaborating with domestic and international partners to enhance chaplain effectiveness.
  • Equipping chaplains through cutting-edge educational materials and training resources
  • Supporting chaplains by researching solutions to challenges in chaplaincy.
  • Advocating for chaplain ministry globally.

How We Do It:

To achieve this vision, the Marsh Institute has established a Center of Excellence for Chaplain Resources and aims to build a $30 million endowment to support chaplains, especially in under-resourced regions. Named after Dr. Gerald E. Marsh, a lifelong seminary professor and military chaplain, the Institute honors his legacy of service and education.
