In this new book, the author, a parish nursing authority, tackles head-on the unique questions and concerns clergy have about starting and maintaining a health ministry program within their congregations. She believes clergy can best learn about and understand the importance of congregational health ministries by listening to the stories and experiences of parish nurses from within the U.S. and around the world, so she has done just that - compiled such accounts and put them together in an interesting, accessible format that will appeal to clergy and convince them to introduce this much-needed ministry to their congregation.
