Registration for Pastoral Care Training

Thank you for your interest in training for pastoral care, sponsored by The Bridge Builders for a Thriving Mission in cooperation with Community of Hope International. The vision is to steep people in Benedictine spirituality and equip them to be a listening, compassionate, and nonjudgmental presence.

The number of potential participants in these trainings has been delightfully strong, so we ask you to register your availability as soon as possible. Please confirm that you are available for BOTH retreat weekends (Oct. 18-19 AND Dec. 13-14). Four additional Zoom sessions will be scheduled between the retreats. More details will follow after participation has been finalized.

We also encourage you to speak with your pastor and to invite at least one companion from your home setting to attend with you. These connections contribute greatly to sustaining the process after training.

Please direct questions to Sam Rahberg at [email protected] or 320-428-0371‬.

Blessings!
