It
is a great pleasure to invite, on behalf of General G.N.
Ngwenya, Chief of the South African National Defence Force, all
the Military Chaplain General(s) / Military Chief Chaplain(s) / Military
Representative(s) of Religion of all the countries in the world
to a first ever world conference.
This conference emanates from the
International Military Chief of Chaplains Conference, which
started in 1990 and had its 19th conference in Copenhagen,
Denmark in 2008.
We look forward with excitement to this
conference and cannot wait to also share this conference with
Military Chaplains Services that were never part of this before.
The theme of the conference, “The Role of the
Chaplain in Reconciliation and Healing in Post-Conflict
Reconstruction”, is especially timely. The Republic of
South Africa has much to offer in the way of understanding how
to move beyond bitter conflict to reconciliation and justice.
We trust that this conference will be
really enriching for all the Military Chaplains Services, and therefore
for all the Defence Forces in the world.
Chaplain's Greetings,
Brig Gen (Rev) Marius Cornelissen |
