Jen’s two passions are working: 1) Working for the Benevolent Fund to assist officers who are struggling in some aspect of their life, who have been injured on the job or to the families of officers who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty, 2) Providing resources for officer wellness, to include mental health assistance for officers who may be struggling with the heavy weight of the work they do every day.

Doug was appointed Chaplain in 2018.  He started his career as a Police Officer here in Loveland in 2011.  Prior to that, he was a middle school teacher for 3 years, and served a full time church mission for 2 years.  He currently serves as a School Resource Officer.  He also serves as the choir director at church he attends.  Doug holds a Bachelor’s degree in Music Education, and is a staff sergeant with the Army National Guard.  A few years before he was nominated as chaplain, his 4 nieces and nephews suddenly came to live with his own wife and 4 kids - with about an hours’ notice - for about 3 months.  This new stress and financial strain took a toll on his family.  Lodge 52 came to the rescue, providing his family with some much needed financial assistance and a listening ear.  Since filling the role of Chaplain, Doug has enjoyed lending that helping hand in a meaningful way to the brothers and sisters in need in lodge 52.
