The month was filled with multiple Life Coaching meetings and new partnerships with other community. Here are some of the main highlights for June:

Chaplaincy Services 

• Appreciation Luncheon for Operation Restore and RHS Staff First Monday Hero Fellowship-Partnership with Mission BBQ- June 7

• Operation Restore 3 ½ day conference with Backpack/Coin presentations (4) June 14-17 PCFR Swearing In Ceremony

• Fire Rescue Safety Stand Down Week ministry to PCFR –all 3 shifts from Tuesday-Thursday

• Quilt of Valor Coin Presentations for 1 Grand Opening Prayer Walk

• Operation Spouse Celebration- June 3 (first launch of this new program)

• 1st Responder Community Picnic

This month began the forward focus for sponsorships for the BOH in Oct with multiple businesses visited and provided information for the various sponsorships. There were two strategic partnerships starting with the I Love PC Organization that hosted the First Responder Community picnic and the 9/11: Remember, Honor, Serve organization that desires to support C2 and Operation Restore with a funding focus during the 2021 Sept. 11th St Pete event. Chaplaincy Care is positioning to take the lead on the future Operation Restore Trauma conferences starting in October, 2021.

From JUNE 1-30, the continual “ministry of Presence” of C2 was expressed in:

• 30 Sites visit (HCSO, PCFR, HCPS-HQ, FBI-Tampa, State Fair)
• 18 Events (Trainings, BIONIC events, Ceremonies, Funerals, Ministry events)

• 42 mentorship/Life Coaching sessions

• C2 Chaplains Report: 6 sites, 1 event, 13 M/C sessions

Total Impacts: 36 sites, 19 Events, 55 M/LC sessions

Chaplaincy Care Counseling Center (C4)

Developing a proactive payment plan for First Responders that cannot pay co-pay or over-all fee for services. We are working with Catrina for development of new budget for 2022 to help cover our heroes and their mental health needs. The growing list of those taking advantage of C4 services has tripled since the initial launch in April 2020. Lee West continue to work toward his licensure for his Counseling degree.

Chaplaincy Care Academy

CH 101 had 2 complete classes. We are developing the CH 501 mentorship block to begin videoing in June. We are presently working to bring on an additional C2 chaplains for HCPS-Security.

Closing Thought: 

Thanks to all our sponsors and donors for the opportunity to pour time and resources into the lives of our First responders and their families. Without you, we cannot do it!
