Mission Statement
The mission of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA (AMS) is "Serving those who serve." Programs vital to the mission include Vocations, Evangelization and Catechesis, Sacramental Records, Tribunal, and Veterans Affairs.
About This Cause
The ministry of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA is to provide the same pastoral care and services as any other Catholic diocese, to Catholics serving in the United States Armed Forces, enrolled in U.S. Military Academies, undergoing treatment at any of the 153 Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Centers in the U.S., Puerto Rico and Guam, working in civilian jobs for the federal government beyond U.S. borders, and the families of these populations. While Catholics constitute the largest faith group of the 244 religious communities recognized by the U.S. armed forces (25%), only 8% of military chaplains are Catholic. The AMS receives no funding from the military or the government to provide the aforementioned programs and must rely solely on private donors.
