About

Mission

Provide for the religious support needs of the Michigan National Guard. Advise the command on morals, morale, ethical issues, and the impact of religion on all aspects of military operations.

Chaplain Support:

Unit Ministry Teams (UMT) and Religious Support Teams (RST) are organized to provide religious support at the unit level. UMTs/RSTs consist of Chaplains and Religious Affairs Specialists who provide comprehensive religious support for Service Members, Families, and authorized Civilians.

To request religious support, first contact your Unit or Wing UMT/RST.  If you do not know your Chaplain or Religious Affairs Specialist, please contact the JFHQ Chaplain Section (contact information below).

Strong Bonds is a chaplain-led program which builds relationship resiliency. The Strong Bonds mission is to increase Service Member and Family readiness through relationship education and skills training.  The training helps Single Service Members, Couples and Families to thrive in the turbulence of the military environment.
