Pastoral Care Week / Spiritual Care Week

October 22-28, 2023
Pastoral Care Week gives opportunities for organizations and institutions of all kinds and types to recognize the spiritual caregivers in their midst and the ministry which the caregivers provide.

This year’s theme is Chaplaincy and Mental Health: It’s Healthy to Get Help

For more PCW resources, including ways to celebrate, prayers, press releases, posters, merchandise, past and future themes, the history of Pastoral Care Week, and more, visit the official website at www.pastoralcareweek.org.
