In the area of chaplaincy ministry, the North American Mission Board (NAMB) has endorsed Doug Metzger as director of prayer evangelism for NAMB. He will also serve as a chaplain to NAMB staff.
NAMB has implemented a new area of chaplaincy by recognizing eight inmates at the Louisiana State Penitentiary in Angola as “certified chaplain’s assistants.”
The inmates have been taking courses through New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.
In the first endorsement of an International Mission Board missionary, Roy Burson, a missionary in Parraya, Thailand, was recently endorsed as a hospital chaplain in cooperation with the IMB.
The endorsement will allow him to extend his ministry to two international hospitals in the city.
