Further to my post recently about Pastoral Care Training, I came across a resource on the Methodist Church website called Encircled in Care. Having bought the pack it does look rather helpful.
The course, for want of a better word, is broken down into three foundation sessions:
Why we care
Developing skills
Good practice
and then there are 9 further modules that look at:
Prayer in pastoral visiting
Connecting care and discipleship
Children, young people and pastoral care
Across the Generations
Extended communion
Health, healing and Well-being
Mental Health issues
Loss and Bereavement
Domestic Abuse
Each session had a Bible passage for reflection and useful handouts, and itt's all on a CDRom too.
I hope to run the three foundations units as an introductory course in the New Year.
