Christian life is a journey and along the way there are certain milestones and markers which show where we are in our pilgrimage with Christ. Some of these times are times of joy, others are of sorrow and others are the times in between like when we are ill. Some times they are big and momentous like a baptism, wedding or a funeral, others are the small acts of anointing the sick or visiting those who are in hospital or house-bound and bringing them Holy Communion.
The links give details about these milestones and aspects of pastoral care.
