Pastoral Care in the Community:

Four Tuesday evenings from 20th January 2009 at St Cuthbert’s, 7.30 pm, led by Joan Sargent, Director of Pastoral Care, Spurriergate  Centre, York. Cost £20

Many Christians would like to know more about how to reach out for the Lord to their neighbours in the 21st Century, bringing hope.  This is a four week course that will help students to explore ways of engaging within their communities in a caring way.  Session topics are forgiving, listening, story-telling and healing in the community.  The course will deal with some of the ‘nitty-gritty’ issues that we find in our society.  Biblical-based theory will be explored through interactive discussion, group activities, exercises to develop skills and personal reflection.
