Centre for Pastoral Care Educatioin

Rocky Mountain College in partnership with the Alberta Pastoral Care Association (Calgary Chapter) is pleased to announce the establishment of the

Centre for Pastoral Care Education

The purpose of the Centre is to provide training in order to equip people for service in pastoral care.

The Centre will offer classes and seminars to assist volunteers and professionals who provide pastoral care in congregations, hospitals, care facilities, hospice and other contexts of ministry in developing their skills and understanding for the vital roles they fill.

One of the key goals of the Centre is to provide basic training to volunteers so that they can be effective in providing pastoral care. The Centre intends to offer a program that is recognized by Alberta Health so that volunteers will be qualified to serve within institutions as well as within facilities and homes of their local parishes and congregations.

More information about the volunteer training program will be posted on this website as soon as possible.

For further information, please contact Rocky Mountain College at (403) 284-5100.
