Pastoral Care

Pastoral Care is caring companionship to others. It is about responding to the emotional and spiritual needs of people. This is achieved by taking the time to listen to the heart of a person’s story and helping them to find meaning in their story, connection with their feelings and value in their life
It is about listening with empathy and respect while building relationships based on trust, equality and acceptance
