Tacoma-Pierce County Chaplain

Russ Guppy, Chaplain

Prior to coming to the Tacoma Police Department in late 2005, Chaplain Russ Guppy served multiple police departments for 19 years in suburban Portland, Oregon. He also is a chaplain for the Seattle-Tacoma office of the FBI, and is a retired Army Reserve chaplain.

Russ was called to emergency service chaplaincy because of the high stress on cops and their families, the importance of their role in society, and because they are often detached from regular pastoral support.

All T-PCC chaplains feel privileged to assist local citizens with godly compassion at the worst moments of their lives, frequently around sudden death.

Russ and his wife, Margie, especially enjoy spending time with their five grown children who live in the greater Seattle area.

Thank you for your interest in supporting the Tacoma-Pierce County Chaplaincy.
