Rediscovering a Ministry of Health

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Nobody in the UK knows more about parish nursing than Helen Wordsworth, so I am delighted that she has written this comprehensive account of its theological rationale; what it involves in practice, and how it can make a significant contribution to the holistic mission of the church. Her compelling argument for the engagement of Christians with health care is also a stirring challenge to any local church to consider the appointment of a parish nurse.”
