Abstract
  • The author of this pastoral essay researched the theological issues and unique spiritual needs of persons with Alzheimer's disease and related dementia through literature review, interviews of families and clergy, and volunteer work in a dementia unit. From this inquiry, she presents a theological argument that persons with dementia have accessible and intact souls that hunger for spiritual nourishment. She then provides a practical resource for churches on the use of familiar religious objects, scriptures, prayers, hymns, and rituals to support spiritual well-being of persons with dementia.
