Street Chaplains are dynamic team-oriented volunteers from a wide range of Christian churches, who are living out the call to ‘love your neighbour as yourself’
(Matt 22:39) and be a ‘good Samaritan’. Street Chaplains work in the WA night club scene and have a proven record in providing crisis pastoral care in a mission setting. The Chaplains offer compassion, practical help and pastoral care to al
l who need and want it. Street Chaplains work in teams of at least two into the early hours of the morning (4am!) over Friday and Saturday nights. The Vision of the Street Chaplaincy Program is to provide a safe environment for patrons to enjoy a night out and not be harmed. The aim is to be ’Good Samaritans’ to those in need and not to preach at people, but simply to care, protect, and ensure patrons get home safely. Street Chaplains respect the range of cultural traditions, affiliations and religious views in the community and are approachable by people of all beliefs.
