Pastoral Care
This part of the course explores the role of elders and the Elders' meeting in ensuring pastoral care takes place within the congregation and looks at ways in which this can be effective
2. First thoughts
Before you start:
Think about how pastoral care manifests itself in
your church context:
- who is involved in giving pastoral care and support?
- is pastoral care viewed as something that must be done in a particular way?
- have changing circumstances and people meant that it has been offered in new ways?
- do you think pastoral care could be improved within your church?
Record your thoughts in a way suitable for you
and at the end of this module, review your thoughts.
Have they changed in any way? What actions will you take now?
