[Partner Event] Movement Chaplaincy: Meeting Spiritual Needs in our Struggles for Justice

Date: July 29, 2020
Time: 12:00 am - 12:00 am

This is a partner event; the Chaplaincy Innovation Lab is not hosting this event.

In this moment of social uprising and the compounding crises related to the global pandemic, many clergy, and lay leaders are experiencing a pull to use pastoral skills in service to the wave of social change and constantly shifting needs. Movement Chaplaincy, the work of spiritual accompaniment to justice movements and their leaders, is an emerging vocation that brings care, healing, and resilience-building to our struggles for justice. Join us for a conversation on how spiritual leaders can show up in this movement moment in supportive, healing, justice-centered ways of accompaniment such as the emerging vocation of movement chaplaincy and beyond.
