Chaplaincy Good News

We have recently focussed on what mission and outreach might look like in the world outside the doors of our churches, and I think many of us have been more than a little frightened by the prospect. One area that has never cropped up in my thoughts is that of Chaplaincy, because I think the role of a Chaplain calls for a very special person with the ability to cope with all sorts of different situations, both happy and also desperately sad, from one extreme of human emotion to the other.

We will meet one such person below in the form of Marilyn. Marilyn has in my eyes, an amazing gift for getting alongside people, sharing in their joys and sorrows, and bringing vital comfort and solace in times of grief.

Do share in Marilyn's story by clicking here, and if it inspires you to get involved please talk to Stefan. You can ring him – Stefan Tiran on 01296 316675. The Chaplains would really like more Methodists to get involved!
