It introduces “Pastoral Supervision”\, to help you discover and build upon your own resources for pastoral ministry with people in situations of crisis and growth. The presentation of a pastoral encounter utilises an ‘Action/Reflection’ model of learning and supervision. \nObjectives\n\nIntroduce pastoral care concepts and methods such as: listening and responding\, understanding expectations\, questions\, spiritual and emotional needs\, assessing spiritual wellbeing\, documenting spiritual care\nHelp participants discover effective ways of interacting with patients\, staff and others which are healing\, sustaining\, guiding\, reconciling\, nurturing and liberating.\nCreate a learning model which gives people the opportunity to develop their professional\, personal\, and pastoral resources for ministry to others\nTo provide a context where people can begin to work in a supervised placement.\nProvide a safe group supervision process where people can evaluate their effectiveness of their ministry. And to foster self-awareness and interpersonal sensitivity.\nEncourage participants to examine and reflect on pastoral situations in light of their theology and tradition as well as examining theological understanding in light of real-life experiences.\nEach participant will write up a verbatim which may be used in group supervision.\n\nPractical Component\nThis course requires participants to engage in 5 hours of pastoral care and write a report of at least one pastoral encounter. This may be undertaken at in a current ministry position or context\, alternatively\, it could be undertaken in a Healthcare setting\, such as hospital (RHH or Calvary) or an aged care facility or even the Tasmanian Prison Service.
