Comment on Pastors, Congregations, and Major Mental Health issues of Parishoners by Barb

I had a brief stay in a mental hospital and I never once got a visit from my pastor, and yes he knew I was there. Why do pastors treat mental hospital differently than medical hospitals, what are they so afraid of ? I also had no support from the church, I had 4 small children and a husband left to care for them. No one sent meals, cards or even called. Is this the typical responce from churches ?

I’m a hospital chaplain with special focus in Behavorial Health; conducting both in and outpatient spirituality groups. I would suggest you check out the website mentalhealthministries.net. Rev. Susan Gregg-Schroeder, an UMC pastor, provides a variety of information for local churches to better reach-out in ministry with folks dealing with mental illness. Thank you for your work in this important area of need.
