Featured on WORD-FM

 

Celtic Hospice's very own Sister Catherine Higgins, Social Worker and Chaplain, was recently interviewed on WORD-FM 101.5, Pittsburgh 's premier Christian radio station.   Host John Hall, who conducts a talk segment from 4 - 6 PM on weekdays, sat down with Sister Catherine as she explained Celtic Hospice's Ministry of Presence to listeners - how it applies to both the dying and how we are called every day to be present to each other.

 

Sister Catherine eloquently spoke about the fears, expectations, and vulnerabilities of dying.  She spoke of the importance of us companioning each other on life's journey, and just being there for each other when there is nothing we can do to change a difficult or stressful situation.

 

Celtic Healthcare’s Ministry of Presence means:

 

● Paying attention to the “whole” person, body, mind, and spirit

● Listening to what the dying have to teach us about living

● Taking time to notice and encourage a person’s spiritual life

● Allowing our patients to lead in the conversation

● Companioning our patients on their journey

● Creating opportunity for a sacred outreach

 

Thank you, Sister Catherine, for being a beautiful example of Celtic Hospice and teaching us all how to simply "be present".
