 The vision and focus of Chaplain Fellowship of Nigeria, non-denominational and non-profit making organization is informed by the urgency to address the support group need of the church in her quest to ensure that the full knowledge of God and His words permeates the society, even as she strives to escape the strong holds of satan that are threatening it’s existence.
Our Nation is being torn by strufe, by insecurity, and by greed. In the period following Nigeria civil war, it has become increasingly evident that moral deterioration instead of improvement seems to mark our generation. The rapid advance of crime, youth delinquency, increase in devoice, exploitation of sex, and extensive use of hard drugs have spread like cancer through modern society.
It is evident that man is not able to solve his own problems, and that only a divine or theological solution provides the answers.

Our generation has eyed with increasing trepidation the successive waves of evil which have infiltrated world society.
The foundation of molarity are being undermined. The central influences of life are being taken over by men from the bottom levels of society in contrast to earlier generations. God’s authority in society is mediated from the top in the punishing of evil and the rewarding of good. But when control is taken over by the men at the bottom, we may be sure that the evil is in it.

Thus permissiveness and situation ethics have barred the issues, weakened the power to discern evil under it’s camouflage of misrepresentation, and then sapped the will to resist religious heretical sects are multiplying and gaining power. Drugs that blow the mind have taken captive many of the up coming generation. Every attack has brought its casualties in every part of corporate life of the family the educational system, the judical system and even the church;, the patterns is to compromise or to break away from God’s fixed moral standards.
What all this is saying is that “the principalities and powers in heavenly places have mustered their unseen array, rigged their Trojan horse, infiltrated society, and opened the gates for a flood of evil to take over.
The body Chaplains Fellowship of Nigeria, is opened to all trained chaplains from reputable chaplaincy institute in Nigeria and abroad. Membership application forms available at the registered office and online.
