Shelton church, Seymour Legion Post to host 'Four Chaplains' program


SHELTON - The First Baptist Church of Shelton, 178 Leavenworth Road, will hold a service at 2 p.m. Sunday to learn about and honor the memory and contributions of four World War II chaplains.
On Feb. 3, 1943 these four men of God -Methodist, Jewish, Catholic, and Dutch-Reformed - worked selflessly together to share the love of God, sacrificing their own lives to help troops and civilians aboard the sinking ship S.S. Dorchester.
The annual event is sponsored by American Legion Post 10 of Seymour. It will be followed by a free reception. 
Parking is available. There is an elevator for visitors using wheelchairs.
