Picking up the pieces: Equipping Church Leaders and Pastoral Workers to Respond Pastorally to Abortion
Date: Tuesday 21st October 2025
Time: 10:30am – 12:30pm
Location: Online (Zoom)
How can church leaders and their teams offer grace-filled, informed, and compassionate responses to abortion in today’s complex culture?
In this pastoral training session, we’ll explore how to walk alongside individuals and families impacted by abortion - with both theological depth and practical care. Whether in preaching, prayer, or pastoral conversations, church leaders are often on the frontlines of this sensitive issue.
Delegates will learn:
- How to offer compassionate, biblically faithful care to those processing abortion.
- How to create a culture in your church that is both open and safe for women and men to seek help.
- Insights from experienced voices in the field who work with women and men who have journeyed through abortion.
- How to address abortion publicly in a way that honours both truth and grace.
Expect real stories, theological grounding, and practical tools to help your church respond with love, not silence.
