Emotional & Spiritual Care Team Training
For Chaplains & Pastors with the
Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)
and the United Church of Christ
The Disaster Response Network of the Heartland Conference United Church of Christ and the Ohio Region Disciples Of Christ announce the second training of our Emotional and Spiritual Care Team (ESCT,) offering support to trauma victims in times of disaster. When disaster strikes, people are impacted, not only physically, but emotionally and spiritually. The Emotional and Spiritual Care Team can provide the ministry of presence, listening, and support to our congregations and neighbors impacted by trauma.
The retreat is Monday, September 14, 4 p.m. to Tuesday, September 15, 4 p.m.
Please view the video for a word from our Emotional and Spiritual Care Team lead, Rev. Ken Weidinger at https://vimeo.com/1219676428?fl=pl&fe=sh
The training will begin Monday morning, with Rev. Dr. Martha Jacobs working with our current ESCT members. Pastors & Chaplains who are not currently ESCT members will join in the late afternoon, between 4:00 and 4:30, and everyone will join together at 5:30 for dinner.
The training will conclude at 4:00 on Tuesday. Registration is $61, which includes all meals in the Dining Hall and Monday night lodging in Monroe Lodge.
Our Emotional & Spiritual Care training is being subsidized by grants from the United Church of Christ Global HOPE, Disciples of Christ Week of Compassion, and Heartland Conference Disaster Response donations…offering participants high-quality training for 1/3 of the actual cost!
