PASTORAL CARE AND COUNSELING
Gestalt Pastoral Care (GPC) is a model of healing ministry that integrates Gestalt therapy (mindfulness & personal accountability), Christian spiritual direction (companioning) and healing prayer. It is grounded in the belief that God’s grace is constantly at work in each person, and that God desires to heal holistically-body, mind, spirit, emotions and social context – in a way that is unique for each person.
Spiritual Exercises for Everyday Life (S.E.E.L.) is a program that helps people incorporate prayer into their daily lives and deepen their relationship with God and others. It is also known as a “retreat in daily life.” The exercises are a collection of prayers, meditations, and reflections created by St. Ignatius Loyola and born out of his own personal experiences in prayer. The exercises are led by a director weekly or monthly over a period of weeks.
