Executive Director
Bette Cooper
Inspired by something
infinitely greater than ourselves and founded in spiritual care, The
Chaplaincy serves from a place of faith in all of its programs. Our
convictions say to those of us who work here that our vocation serves a
purpose greater than ourselves. In that, we recognize the sacredness
of the work we do together. The Chaplaincy is a place where our souls
fill our individual roles within the organization.
I am privileged to serve with a board and leadership
team that embraces the deeper meaning of our work. I am humbled and
honored by the relationship of this organization
to our larger community, always aware of their
devotion to the work we do together. Over our thirty six year history,
our community has continued to provide strength and direction to our
mission.
Each day I am inspired by the stories of those we serve and how that service
happens and I am grateful to be a part of it.

The
Chaplaincy means many things to many people. For me, I truly feel blessed to
have an opportunity to work with so many talented individuals who are
willing to share their skills, dedication and faith for the common good.
Director of Spiritual Formation
Wes McIntyre
The
leadership team of The Chaplaincy has an essential element that needs to be
mentioned. This element is essential in all our best efforts. The
leadership team at the Chaplaincy seeks to look toward that which is greater
than ourselves; that which has been and is present with us since our
inception; that which inspires in us creativity, compassion, courage, and
wisdom; that which takes us beyond the poverty of our own opinions,
viewpoints and egos and centers us in a spirit of service to our community.
We are faith based and that means, among other things, we trust beyond
ourselves for divine guidance, providential leading, and inspired service.
We are humbled when we miss this divine presence and connection but we are
also humbled when we lead into that calling and discover a path that leaves
us in awe, knowing that what is occurring transcends us all. What a
privilege for us to participate in life in this way.
Director of Hospice Services

Gary Castillo
Let me take the opportunity to introduce myself as the new Director of
Hospice for The Chaplaincy. In a way, it is a sort of homecoming for me as I
have been out of hospice for a short time and now I have the opportunity to
join the wonderful team at The Chaplaincy. Over the course of the last six
years I have had the privilege of working in hospices across the country and
it has been the most rewarding part of my whole professional career. Hospice
has a way of drawing you in and as I had someone tell me once it touches
the soul. I look forward to getting to know the staff, community supporters
and The Chaplaincy Board so that together we can continue to build on the
foundation that has been laid by so many. We are continually challenged as
hospice providers to get the message out about the care and support that
hospice provides to so many in our community and communities across the
country. I look forward to being a part of that message and together with my
wife Maria and two children, Gary and Danielle, becoming a part of the
hospice family at The Chaplaincy.
Supervisor of Social Services
Judy
Westerberg
There is a saying in Hospice that goes, "The care of
the body means nothing without first easing the soul. Hospice Workers
are not hired; they are called". That message is true for all of us
here who know that working at The Chaplaincy is exactly where we are meant
to be. I believe that God has brought us together with our divergent
backgrounds, talents and passions to do his work.
Our work is about relationship building. We are
intentional about our support and caring of one another. That
strengthens us as individuals and as an organization as we strive to create
and provide opportunities for hurting people in our community to find
healing, reconciliation and hope. It is a joy and a privilege to be
part of this team.
