This course is designed to help church members and neighbors in the community solve life difficulties and relieve the stress of taking care of their families. At the same time, this course also hopes to help students understand and make good use of community resources, and be more relevant and effective in social relations and pastoral care, so that members can receive help "as soon as possible" and feel that the church can provide practical Helpful and effective holistic pastoral care, continuing to rely on Heavenly Father for guidance in the confusing lives of caregivers.
