The chaplain who can marry and have children is typically referred to as a "married clergy" member, often seen in various Protestant denominations, such as Anglican, Lutheran, or Methodist traditions. In the Catholic Church, however, priests generally do not marry or have children, except for those who are married clergy from other denominations who convert to Catholicism. In some Eastern Catholic Churches, married priests are permitted.

Can a Catholic chaplain get married?

It depends upon the level of his ordination.If he is a laychaplain - i.e. if he is not ordained - then yes, he can marry.If he has been ordained a deacon in the Catholic Church, then again, he can marry.But if the chaplain is an ordained priest (or bishop), then in the Roman Catholic Church they are not allowed to marry and take a vow of celibacy (not having sex) at their ordination.There has been a lot of controversy over this man-made rule recently especially as a very small percentage of priests in the Anglican Church (who ARE allowed to marry) have defected to the Catholic Church because they disagreed with women in the Anglican Church being allowed to be ordained. This has caused quite a stir and many feel the ban on marriage of priests in the Roman Catholic Church as outdated and wrong and are looking to the time when married priests and bishops (of both sexes) will be allowed into the Catholic Church.

How do you address a hospice chaplain?

A hospice chaplain can be addressed as "Chaplain" followed by their last name, such as "Chaplain Smith." If they have a specific title or credential, such as "Reverend" or "Father," you may use that title as well. It's always a good practice to ask the chaplain how they prefer to be addressed, as personal preferences may vary.

How do you properly address a chaplain?

The chaplain in the US military is considered a dual role person. When the chaplain is in uniform but not in a church or performing a religious duty it is customary to address them as an officer (ie using his rank as a title/name). When the chaplain is performing a religious duty or in the church it is customary to refer to them by their religious title: father (catholic); Rabbi (Jewish); Minister or pastor (Protestant). When the chaplain is out of uniform and not performing religious duties it is customary to refer to him by name (or religious title).
