Retired Navy Rear Admiral Margaret Grun Kibben has held a multitude of illustrious titles in her day, including Chief Chaplain of the Navy and Chaplain of the Marine Corps.
She has recently been appointed Chaplain once again, this time of the U. S. House of Representatives. This makes Kibben the very “first female congressional chaplain” in all of U. S. history.
She will be leading House members in prayer and ceremony, as well as offering them counseling. Kibben’s extensive pastoral background includes a “doctorate of ministry and a master’s of divinity from Princeton Theological Seminiary.”
