Overall Objective

The overall objective of this portfolio is to provide  pastoral care through the different ministries that fall under its ambit.

We visit and take communion to various retirement homes as well as to the housebound.

The Christ Healing Fellowship (CHF) prays for each member who has put in a request. They meet each Wednesday afternoon to discuss the prayer list and record updates. They then attend the healing service in the Holy Spirit Chapel. Intercessors are a group of people who minister in praying for people in need. Each member receives a monthly letter with prayer requests and updates.

A group also looks after parish members who have been bereaved recently.

We have a team of Anglicare Councillors who provide counselling on request.

We are building this team up to become much more visible to the greater parish.
