From Our Family to Yours: Happy New Year!  

  
American Baptist Chaplaincy and Pastoral Counseling Ministries Team Expands!

We are pleased to announce CH (Col-Ret) Kristina "Kristy' Moeller has joined our ABHMS team, serving as the liaison for American Baptist military chaplains. CH Moeller retired in December 2014 from the U.S. Army where she expertly engaged systems (having been trained in Lean Six Sigma) to connect God to soldiers and soldiers to God. Kristy was the first female to serve in the U.S. Army's Office of the Chief of Chaplains as well as the first female to serve as U.S. Army Reserve Command Chaplain, her position prior to retirement. A graduate of the Army War College, Kristy-an American Baptist-ordained ministry professional  from the ABC Metro-Chicago region, holds a master's degree in Strategic Studies and a master of divinity degree from Northern Baptist Seminary. With a passion to serve others while connecting people and resources, Kristy is a great addition to our Chaplaincy & Pastoral Counseling Ministries team.
