Abstract
  • Formative care affirms that streams of pastoral care and spiritual formation, converging in a lay system of caring, will be spiritually enriching for both caregivers and receivers. The author studied the areas of pastoral care, spiritual formation, and Wesleyan practice, and applied principles to the local congregation through trained caregivers. As trusted church members, caregivers were consistently in contact with receivers by phone to listen, encourage and pray with them. Surveys taken before and after four months indicate an increase in the care receivers' connection to the church, the practice of prayer and relationship with God in general.
