Is a Faith Community Health Ministry in Your Future?
A Faith Community Nurse is not simply a registered nurse who happens to be a member of a faith community. Faith Community Nursing is a nationally recognized nursing practice specialty. The Foundations of Faith Community Nursing Course prepares nurses to stand in the gap; to bridge the health care system and faith community. Faith Community Nurses and Health Ministers work together to open the door for important conversations about health and wellness of the mind, body, and spirit and provide additional caring connection and support for faith community members facing today’s many challenges.
Faith Community Health Network is partnering to offer the Foundations for Faith Community Nursing for licensed registered nurses (RNs) and a parallel Foundations for Health Ministry course for nurses with inactive licenses and faith community lay members. The course will be ten half-day sessions held on Zoom from 8am – 12:30pm on the following Mondays and Tuesdays in 2025: October 20-21, 2025, October 27-28, 2025, November 3-4, 2025, November 10-11, 2025, November 17-18, 2025. Please also save the date for our in-person graduation/dedication ceremony to honor our graduates on Sunday, November 23, 2025 from 2pm-4pm at a location to be announced later. Cost for the six days of training is $500. Course cost includes four books and 40+ continuing education contact hours.
