Spiritual and Pastoral Care Week has been celebrated since October 1985, providing an opportunity for chaplains and pastoral care counselors, educators, and providers to share their stories and celebrate various ministries. This year's theme is "Advancing Spiritual Care through Spiritual Care Research". Planners describe the theme as an opportunity to explore how "research becomes the frontier of our profession to measure what good chaplaincy work does for patients and teams within that specific setting." 

Responding to this theme American Baptist Chaplain Rev. Shelley E. Varner Perez presented "Research Literacy In Pastoral Care" to the members of the American Baptist National Network of Chaplains, Pastoral Counselors, Specialized Ministers. Now you have an opportunity to view this excellent presentation on MinistrElife!
