The creation of a safe, sacred space for African-American women in ministry to share their stories encourages an inward journey of self-reflection, renewal, reconnection, and rest. This study explored intentional clergy self-care based on the researcher's PMS model of prayer, meditation and support. Using qualitative research, a face-to-face six-week study with a clergy peer group and a secondary study using an online questionnaire were conducted. The results showed that pastors experience greater stress in ministry than those in other ministry positions. On-going self-care awareness and support across geographic and denominational boundaries were factors in promoting community and sustainability.
