Parish Nursing: Stories of Service and Care describes the work of parish nurses and the preparation needed to fulfill this new approach to health and pastoral care. These candid stories from parish nurses tell about 'responding to the call' as well as the concurrent roles they play as educators, counselors, trainers of volunteers, organizers of support groups, referral agents, and health advocates. This emerging ministry of healing holds within it the potential to solve some of our current healthcare problems as well as deliver wholistic care for body and soul.
