Deepening our Sense of Being With God, Others and Ourselves In a Ministry of Accompaniment

At the heart of pastoral ministry and Chaplaincy work are encounters with individuals, and in seeking to accompany people in their journey more deeply we can help people overcome, fear isolation and bring them to meaningful connection with the Living God. The session will look at how accompaniment can be transformative, focusing on the experience of the group.
