From the website:
The Prophetic Voice is always in our midst. It calls us to reach for action and peace - to sustain that which brings us hope, well-being, dreams, and renewal. Like a seed caught in the wind - quiet and inconspicuous. It may be in disguise and mistrusted, yet it endures the foul weather and seasons to prove true. When acknowledged, it grows into a wise tree to shelter, nourish and teach us.
(The 2013 logo represents this quieted seed.)
Regardless of faith tradition, Pastoral Care Week celebrates those who provide pastoral care to others. It is endorsed by the Congress on Ministries in Specialized Settings (COMISS), whose members provide pastoral care in specialized settings such as hospitals, prisons, businesses, industries, long term care facilities, pastoral counseling centers, hospices, military settings, nursing homes, congregations of sisters, priests and brothers, schools, universities, and seminaries throughout the world. CPSP is a proud member of COMISS.
Educate your community, colleagues, institutions and friends - many resources, including governmental proclamations, artwork, seminars and merchandise, are available for local celebrations. For more information, visit www.pastoralcareweek.org.
*The last date for ordering is this weekend - September 13th! Make your plans today.
