(upbeat music)

00:06.200 --> 00:07.840
- Hello, team Wright-Patterson.

00:07.840 --> 00:09.100
I'm Chaplain Kim Bowen,

00:09.100 --> 00:12.000
the Wing chaplain here at
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.

00:12.850 --> 00:14.760
On behalf of the chapel,

00:14.760 --> 00:17.280
please know that our thoughts
and our prayers are with you

00:17.280 --> 00:20.060
as we pull together during
these challenging times

00:20.060 --> 00:21.713
in response to COVID-19.

00:23.130 --> 00:24.280
It's during times like this

00:24.280 --> 00:27.023
that we lean on our spiritual resilience,

00:27.920 --> 00:30.770
responding to whatever comes our way

00:30.770 --> 00:34.750
as we use our belief systems
and our values to guide us

00:34.750 --> 00:36.223
and to give us the peace and assurance

00:36.223 --> 00:38.520
that things will be all right.

00:38.520 --> 00:41.140
Our services are available to you.

00:41.140 --> 00:43.210
We have chaplains and
Religions Affairs airmen

00:43.210 --> 00:45.240
standing by to respond to your needs.

00:45.240 --> 00:47.030
Should you need someone to talk to

00:47.030 --> 00:51.930
during normal operating hours
you can call 937-257-7427.

00:53.330 --> 00:54.540
For after hours assistance,

00:54.540 --> 00:59.540
please call the Command
Center at 937-257-6314,

00:59.980 --> 01:02.600
and they'll put you in touch
with the duty chaplain.

01:02.600 --> 01:05.110
Please note that we offer
privileged communication,

01:05.110 --> 01:07.300
which means 100% confidentiality.

01:07.300 --> 01:08.340
Anything that you share

01:08.340 --> 01:10.700
with one of our Chaplain Corps members

01:10.700 --> 01:13.655
will be protected completely.

01:13.655 --> 01:16.050
Out of an abundance of
caution, our religious services

01:16.050 --> 01:18.660
and associated religious
education programs

01:18.660 --> 01:21.080
at Wright-Patterson
are currently suspended

01:21.080 --> 01:22.780
until further notice.

01:22.780 --> 01:25.020
However our Roman Catholic
and Protestants communities

01:25.020 --> 01:28.720
host Facebook sites that will
have words of encouragement

01:28.720 --> 01:29.930
as well as devotional thoughts

01:29.930 --> 01:32.203
and messages of hope and faith.

01:33.240 --> 01:35.510
Again we join with you as we create

01:35.510 --> 01:38.230
a compassionate, connected community.

01:38.230 --> 01:39.410
We will weather this storm.

01:39.410 --> 01:41.036
We'll get through this together.

01:41.036 --> 01:43.619
