LOOKING TO EUROPE: CHAPLAINS AT CHANIA

In: Health and social care chaplaincy, S. 26-28

Abstract

The author suggests that it is to Europe and not North America that Scottish Chaplains should now be looking for ideas about future development in chaplaincy. The growth of significance of the European Union in the everyday life of Scotland dictates that chaplains must be willing to take their concerns for standards in spiritual care to the European institutions. An important focus for this is to be found in the European Network of Health Care Chaplaincy, founded at Chania in Crete in November 2000.
