Have you ever wondered if there’s a Christian service that provides help to people in physical and emotional need within the community? Is there a way for nurses to use their hard-earned skills outside of a hospital or doctor’s surgery? On this week’s edition host Sharon Tedford chats with Barbara Griffiths. Barbara is the regional nurse coordinator for Parish Nursing Ministries UK, and she tells us how she’s using her nursing prowess within her own neighbourhood and beyond. This important ministry serves people in a myriad of ways. From people suffering with depression or anxiety, to those who’ve received a cancer diagnosis, or maybe even members of the community who desperately need grief support. The Parish Nurses work to improve the lives of people in the UK through whole person health care. And they’re making sure that churches and Christian organisations in every region of the UK are supported to host high quality, sustainable, accredited nursing services that facilitate wholistic health and wellbeing for local people. Barbara helps us to think about how we can share the gospel by noticing the needs of people around us, and engaging with them in the way Jesus would have. If you’re in a medical field, you’ll find this conversation enlightening and hope filled. If you’re not, you’ll get lots of simple, actionable tips on how to care for those around you in genuinely helpful ways. There’s something here for everyone!
