Addiction and Spirituality POSTPONED till 2021
Training day for all those in ministry, lay and ordained, church or community settings
How much do we understand about the nature of addiction? Why is spirituality seen by many as an important concept in addiction treatment? How can faith based spirituality contribute to an effective recovery for those suffering with addiction?
It is hoped that the workshop will encourage participants to explore and develop their understanding of the often misunderstood world of addiction. There will also be opportunity to consider the topic in ways which are relevant to their particular ministry. It will be of interest to those involved in parish ministry, chaplaincy, spiritual accompaniment and pastoral care. This workshop was held in Wiltshire last year. An additional workshop on different aspects of this topic is to be offered in due course.
Lunch and refreshments provided
Revd Jean Boulton-Reynolds has been a parish priest since 1996 and subsequently trained as an Addiction Counsellor. For 10 years she was on the staff team of a residential alcohol treatment centre in South London where she was additionally responsible for the spiritual aspect of the treatment programme. Jean is also one of two Advisers for Spirituality in Salisbury Diocese.
