Fellowship of Christian Care Professionals (FCCP)

This is a discussion based session.

Synopsis:
Care professionals are in a rewarding and yet risky business. While we are involved with our clients in their journey of self-discovery, growth and healing; the exposure to their painful life experiences may bring about burnout, compassion fatigue or apathy in us. Our mental, emotional, psychological and spiritual health may suffer. Also, as Christians, we enjoy the multiple blessings of God’s presence, guidance, providence, hope, comfort, strength, and wisdom. However, we may neglect our identity as Christians in the demands of our role as care professionals. This short discussion enables us to take a quick glimpse into our well-being and brings up to a deeper understanding of who God is.
