Lifeline Chaplaincy is a non-profit organization that is an outreach of the Churches of Christ. Lifeline has served the 13 hospitals of the Texas Medical Center in Houston since 1983. In recent years we have expanded our ministry to selected hospitals in other cities, including Fort Worth and Austin. Our mission statement reads:
Dedicated to providing compassionate support to the seriously ill, their families and caregivers, and to being an educational resource for crisis ministry.
Lifeline’s pastoral care ministry is provided by board certified professional chaplains, as well as trained volunteers and chaplain interns working under their supervision.
