Whilst its buildings have been closed, churches have extended their important role in providing food and welfare provision to those in need. But what has pastoral care really looked like in lockdown? Wrestling with high mortality rates and radical uncertainty has deeply unsettled people prompting a range of spiritual questions from the wider community. How have the churches responded to these challenges? This webinar explores the pastoral, spiritual and material dimensions of the COVID-19 pandemic drawing on emerging research and practice. Speakers: Dr Anne Richards, the Church of England's National Adviser on Mission Theology, New Religious Movements and Alternative Spiritualties and convener of the Mission Theological Advisory Group of the CTBI.
