Clinical
Pastoral Education/Training is theological learning through experience in a
clinical setting, under the supervision of a certified teacher-practitioner of
pastoral ministry. CPE/Training provides a process for integration of
various aspects of theological education into a personal theology and
professional style of ministry. The goal of CPE/Training is to give
opportunities to function as ministers, while receiving guidance to render
pastoral care. In the process, one’s own unique gifts in ministry are
called forth, recognized, and strengthened.
The
main educational purposes of this program are to provide opportunities to
render pastoral care to individuals under stress in multi-institutional
settings, to develop pastoral identity, and to master a body of interpersonal
skills and academic materials related to pastoral care functions. In the
process of fulfilling these purposes, the student/ trainee will be able to set
individualized learning goals and evaluate theological and pastoral
presuppositions and procedures within the context of relationships with a
chaplain supervisor, student colleagues, potentially staff chaplains and
professionals from other disciplines. Rich Behers, DMin BCC CFHPC,
Spiritual Care Program Manager will lead the CPE process.
Class
begins October 24, 1-5 PM at the Southridge office of Cornerstone Hospice
located at
4215 CR 561, Tavares, FL 32778
