Formational Care is a ministry of the Holy Spirit, moving through a Christian caregiver, bringing the healing presence of Jesus into the place of pain and brokenness within a wounded person. Special applications of the Formational Care Model are included along with teaching, modeling, group experience special workshops, and skills development training.
