SUMMARY:Mental Health\, Faith & Community
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean for the Church to be a place where people living with mental health challenges feel truly welcomed – as people to be loved\, understood and included? \nIn this talk and discussion on Saturday 11 October 2:00pm – 4:00pm at St Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral\, Palmerston Place\, Rev Professor John Swinton will explore how Christian faith can shape the way we think about mental health and how the Church can become a community of genuine belonging. \nDrawing on his background in both theology and mental health care\, he will reflect on the roles of prayer\, preaching and worship in responding to difficult psychological experiences – not simply by offering answers\, but by allowing space for honesty\, hope and compassion. \nThe session will invite participants to think practically and theologically about what it means to listen well\, to accompany others faithfully\, and to create a Church culture that values every person\, irrespective of their condition or capacity. Clergy\, congregation members\, carers and mental health professionals are all welcome. Refreshments will be provided. \nFree\, ticketed\, booking available here. \nThis event is ecumenical and is organised by St Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral\, Palmerston Place.
