All JBLM Chapel Services, Religious Education events, and auxiliary meetings inside our buildings are currently suspended through a date yet to be determined. Additionally, all chapel buildings remain closed, but are available on a limited, case by case basis, for memorials, ceremonies, and small study groups.
Although the buildings are closed, your faith practices don't have to - and should not - stop. We have virtual opportunities for personal worship available on our ⚠ Facebook page, as well as our new ⚠ YouTube Page [jblmchap] where you will find a diverse and growing library of sermons, music, prayer and other resources to support your personal faith practices. For a full listing of virtual resources, please see our Chapel Community Resource Factsheet.
With one of the largest Religious Support Organizations in the U.S. military, we are ready to support the units, service and family members, retirees and civilians of JBLM - we are here to serve YOU!
