Chaplaincy and Addiction

Wisconsin Chaplaincy Convention, Green Lake, Wisconsin

Chaplaincy and Addiction: What’s a Chaplain to do?

In October, 2014, Chaplain Joe Herzanek (Changing Lives Foundation, Loveland, CO) was a featured speaker at the annual Wisconsin Chaplaincy Conference in beautiful Green Lake, Wisconsin.

This year’s theme was “Drug/Alcohol Addiction” and we (Joe and Judy Herzanek) were honored to spend 3 days at the beautiful Heidel House Resort, on Green Lake, WI.

Speaker Chaplain Joe delivered three presentations during the conference:
Chaplaincy and Addiction
> Addiction: Disease or Moral Failing?
> Addict with a crime problem or a criminal with an addiction problem?
> What’s a Chaplain to do?

Over three days much ground was covered on the topic of substance abuse and how it impacts the work of a Chaplain. Joe delivered three one hour presentations plus a roundtable discussion for a group of over 60 Chaplains, both men and women, who serve at various facilities in Wisconsin (from hospitals to jails to treatment centers and more).

All sessions were well-received and were very interactive.

“There have been many great presenters over the years, but none that can really hold the folks and engage them in conversation the way Joe was able to do . . . The reviews were overwhelmingly positive.”

We would like to thank our friend Ned Wicker (Host: Recovery Now! Radio) for hosting the 2014 Wisconsin Chaplaincy Conference this year. It was wonderful getting to know such an interesting and diverse group of Chaplains from the state of Wisconsin.
