Empowering Families in Crisis
The Impact of Chaplaincy
A Chaplain's Journey to Happiness and Healing
"One of my strengths is providing pastoral care to families in crisis, and when necessary, I connect them with appropriate support services. I believe that children are often happy when families are happy.
Since 2018, I have been journeying with a parent whose household environment was affected because of lots of screaming and violence rooted in mental health problems. Over the years, I was able to empower him to make the right choices, seek the right help, and now he is in a much healthier relationship. His two daughters are much happier at school, and he has the freedom to seek help from me at any time.
More recently, I assisted a couple of single moms by advocating for them with housing agencies and connecting them to Women's Space, Bridging the Gap, and a community member who is committed to supporting them as a friend."
