CIHSR CHAPEL

Overview

The Chaplaincy Department is a recent addition to the family of CIHSR. The main objective of this department is to provide pastoral care and support to the patients and their family members, to the staff and their families, and also to the students. The Chaplaincy provides Biblical Counseling, thereby catering to the spiritual needs of the patients and contributing towards holistic health care.

The Chaplaincy also works hand in hand with the Chapel Committee in enhancing the worship life of the CIHSR community and further contributes towards the spiritual growth of the community as a whole.

Special Prayer for the Patients every Wednesday at 11:30 am in the Chapel

This has been an initiative of the Chaplaincy Department which was started last year and it has been a blessed experience coming together with the family members of the patients and praying together. The family members come to the chapel and pour out their hearts and share their concerns for prayers
