It is natural for patients to question the nature of God in the context of trauma and grief: “Why would God let this happen to me?” “Where is God when I am suffering?” “What kind of a God would allow these tragedies? Responding to these questions effectively not only requires understanding where the patient is coming from religiously and spiritually, but also on you as the Chaplain or caretaker. How does your religious formation, spirituality and personal experience inform your responses to someone’s whose background may be very different than your own? How might your response add to or alleviate the pain of the patient and their family members?
Join your regional colleagues for a time of discussion, reflection, and resource review.

CPMC invites you to a conversation with Felicitas Brugo Onetti, Anti-Trafficking Education and Outreach Coordinator at the Migration and Refugee Services Department at the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.

Led by Auxiliary Bishop Mario Avilés of the Diocese of Brownsville and Helder Hernandez, Poverty Education & Outreach Coordinator with the Department of Justice, Peace, and Human Development at the USCCB, we will discuss the importance of ministering and being ministered to in a person’s native language.
