CONGREGATIONAL CARE MINISTRIES Congregational Care at Old Donation is a ministry of assuring that every member knows God's love in a very tangible way. Bearing one another's burdens in love is the call of every Christian and Old Donation attempts to carry out that ministry corporately and individually. Our ministries include caring for members needs: spiritually, emotionally, and physically. One of our newer ministries has been the development of a Health Ministry that is more encompassing, including Parish Nursing. Below you can learn some of what this includes. Parish Nursing Program Mission... To promote health, healing, and wholeness in the community of Old Donation Episcopal Church. Parish nursing is a unique blend of health care and ministry. The addition of a registered nurse to a congregation can help individuals in their quest for health and wholeness and assist the faith community in claiming the fullness of life promised through Christ (John 10:10). Our Parish Nurse Program is part of the Health Ministry under Pastoral Care at Old Donation Episcopal Church. Parish Nurse volunteers are R.N.'s who have completed a Parish Nurse Ministry certification program. They work as a team with other volunteer parish health professionals to promote whole person health and healing. Parish nurses offer the following services: Health Care Advocate, Health Educator, Health Counselor, Health Referral Agent To speak with the Old Donation Parish Nurse, Kelly Good, call the parish office (497-0563) during office hours, 9-5 Monday through Friday.  |
