Be a Chaplain for COR
An important part of our mission is to make the sacraments available on our trips. We are looking for priests who are interested in evangelizing through adventure and the outdoors to join us. To learn more about becoming a COR chaplain, please compete the form below or contact us.
Requirements
In order for you to participate on a course, COR asks for a letter of good standing from either a diocese or religious order and that any priest or religious complete our registration process in order for us to assess physical abilities for each course. Prior experience is not necessary in any of the activities in order to participate, but general physical fitness is recommended. First time chaplains may be asked to answer the following, or similar, questions either in writing or in a brief phone or video interview prior to participating in their first course.
Who have been some of the most important influences in your spiritual life?
Over the years, what spiritual writing (other than Scripture) have you most consistently returned to for edification?
What experience do you have working with youth?
What draws you to COR Expeditions and/or Wyoming Catholic College’s ministry?
Do you have any wilderness experience?
About Chaplaincy
We are always looking for priests who would like to join us and help bring Christ to the participants.

We cover the cost of chaplain travel
There is no course fee for our chaplains
We can provide all necessary items for Mass in the backcountry
Camping gear and extra layers are available free of charge from our equipment center
All of our staff are safe environment certified and will work with our chaplains to prevent compromising situations
INTEREST FORM FOR PRIESTS & RELIGIOUS
Filling out this form indicates that you would like to hear about opportunities for priests and other religious to join our courses and allows you to indicate your availability and interest in a particular course or courses; it does not yet require a commitment to a trip. COR staff will be in touch with you after we receive your responses to answer any questions you have before you get assigned to a course.
