Regional Area Port Chaplain for East Anglian Ports

The Stella Maris (SM) Regional Port Chaplain is the friend of the seafarer during emergencies, through lonely and stressful times.  They understand the difficulties the seafarer experiences away from home and their loved ones, for long periods of time.  They will promote the vision, mission and values of SM in caring for all seafarers and fishers by helping to meet their pastoral and spiritual needs. They will recruit, train and support SM staff and volunteers for the port and will maintain good relations with local parishes and the local diocese. They will work ecumenically with members of other Christian maritime societies with whom SM works.
