Bereavement naturally results in the “dark night of the soul,” writes Dr. Wolfelt. A central need of those in grief is to rejuvenate the spirit, to discover a reason to get one’s feet out of bed in the morning. Among the learning objectives for this inspiring training are the following:

To provide an in-depth understanding of the concept of spiritual care of the mourner.
To enhance understanding of specific ways to provide spiritual support to the mourner.
To provide a comprehensive spiritual assessment tool.
To model respect for the mourner’s personal experience of their faith/spirituality.
To outline specific spiritual practices that can be used to minister to the mourner.
To create ways to sustain hope when the mourner feels suspended from those things that make life worth living.
To explore potential barriers to the spiritual care of the mourner.
To apply Dr. Wolfelt’s 11 Tenets of “companioning” to assist in the facilitation of the “psycho-spiritual WHY work” of the mourner.
