| Pastoral
Care This
spiritual support by Paracletia, Inc. can include, but is not limited to:
- Conducting spirituality
groups weekly with those in treatment which
involves education, listening and supporting the spiritual needs expressed,
- Listening
as the clients individually present Step 5 in which they verbally admit to their
higher power, to themselves and to another human being the exact nature of their
wrongs,
- Providing
pastoral care to assist in dealing with any grief issues which may arise because
those in treatment are separated from their families and faith communities,
- Establishing
relationships with persons in treatment based on love and unconditional acceptance,
- Conducting
worship services on Sunday afternoon.

| "I've
been in treatment before, but no one has zeroed in on my anger toward my dealer.
I know I must forgive him. Will you help me understand what forgiveness is? I
know that is the only way I can stay clean and sober." |
| | "Before
you came, we presented our 5th step to someone that we knew didn't care about
us. You listen and help us. Thank you for coming here to help us with our spiritual
problems. Tell me one thing... how can God love me after what I've done to other
people?" |
We
rely on donor generousity to continue with our work, and thank each and all for
your support.
