Visitation/Networking
SpiritCare is working toward the establishment of a network in all
states and territories for the purpose of visiting and ministering
to every retired ministerial couple and widow. It is the intention,
first of all, to express appreciation for their years of service
and then to document their living conditions, financial status, and
health needs for the purpose of providing assistance where necessary.
Also, the visitation is designed to discover retired ministers and
widows who may not be on the general or state office records.
When fully operational, the visitation network will provide a personal
contact between the SpiritCare Office and every retired minister
and widow at least once each year. Each state or territory will have
a network of persons headed by the state representative, of a size
adequate to serve the number of constituents in their area. Further,
the members of the network will collect the names and addresses of
children of retired ministers and widows for the purpose of establishing
a support group for this ministry.
