Learn how the Sister Care seminar provides transformative resources for personal healing and effective caring in the congregation. Women will share ways they have used Sister Care materials in their contexts and how they have adapted the material for various ages, literacy levels and cultural groups with testimonies of the impact this has had. Seminars have been presented in North, Central, and South America, east Asia, and the Caribbean. The Sister Care manual is available in four languages. A Sister Care DVD and Leader’s Guide with twelve sessions is available in English.
