Chaplain William (Bill) Shelton, of Peachtree City, has been admitted to the membership of the International Conference of Police Chaplains (ICPC).

The ICPC was founded in 1973 to serve all law enforcement chaplains and has more than 2,500 members across the world. The organization is ecumenical, interfaith and interdenominational, supports both paid and volunteer chaplains, helps agencies develop chaplaincy programs and is a non-profit organization.
