Assemblies of God U.S. Missions Chaplaincy Ministries Senior Director Manuel A. Cordero knew he had found the right person for a newly configured leadership position in Gloria Orengo Taylor. Taylor retired in 2014 after a combined 35 years as a chaplain, equally split between the military and hospitals. Cordero believed such experience made her the perfect candidate for the reshaped post of AG Chaplaincy Ministries Veterans Affairs/health care representative. Previously, duties for VA representation have been performed by Scott McChrystal, who has served as the military as well as VA representative and endorser since 2005. McChrystal will continue in the military role.
