How to use this resource
Pastoral presence can include listening, prayer, Scripture, and practical connection. It does not require a pastor to diagnose, treat, or carry every crisis alone. For safety concerns, abuse, psychosis, self-harm, or serious impairment, follow safeguarding obligations and contact qualified emergency or mental-health support.
