    All Christians care for others, but some discover a particular gift or ministry in this area. This course is for people already involved in pastoral care or those wanting to discover more about this ministry. Come ready to learn more about the nature of pastoral care, different ways we can care well for each other, some practical skills to help in all this and how theological understandings of healing, wholeness and being human can help inform our practice.
