Clinical Pastoral Education Program

CHRISTUS Spohn Hospital Corpus Christi—Memorial's Clinical Pastoral Education Program provides education in the pastoral care of persons receiving treatment in a multidiscipline, faith-based trauma hospital. The program is accredited by the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education, Inc. CHRISTUS Spohn Hospital Corpus Christi—Memorial is part of a faith-based organization, sponsored by CHRISTUS Health.

Clinical Pastoral Education is interfaith professional education for ministry. It brings theological students and ministers of various faiths into ministry encounters with persons in crisis. Out of an intense involvement with persons in need, and the feedback from peers and teachers, students develop new awareness of themselves as persons and of the needs of those to whom they minister. From theological reflection on specific human situations, they gain a new understanding of ministry and enhanced pastoral care skills.
