What is Faith Community Care?

Faith Community Care (FCC) adds a health dimension to pastoral care by
mobilising the gifts and strengths of local people to address contemporary
health and social vulnerabilities such as sickness, ageing, chronic conditions,
mental distress, loneliness, family and relationship breakdown, etc.

We seek to promote holistic health, prevent disease, injury and abuse, and
provide compassionate and effective care to all. 

AFCNA prepares nurses, health professionals and lay workers to provide this care
within their faith community and the population that community serves.

To achieve this vision AFCNA will:

 * equip you to bring effective compassionate care that promotes health
 * focus your learning on a Christian worldview of the whole person 
 * teach you strength-based methods that empower personal and community health 
 * develop your gifts using Christ-centred and evidence-based learning  methods
 * prepare you to serve to legal, ethical and professional standards 
 * connect you with others passionate about health and compassionate care
 * enable you to put your faith into action to effectively ‘love your
   neighbour’  and empower them to thrive 
 * if you are a nurse we will educate you for the Faith Community Nurse role

ABOUT US

AFCNA is an incorporated professional association and a registered charity in
Australia. We are a member of the Australian Council of National Nursing and
Midwifery Organisations (CoNNMO). AFCNA commenced in 1996 to support the
specialty of Faith Community Nursing in Australian Christian churches.

AFCNA prepares people of faith to provide compassionate care to the whole person
(body, mind, spirit, relationships). In 2022 AFCNA expanded its vision to
include the development of compassionate Faith Community Care, recognising a
unique opportunity to blend the knowledge and skills of health professionals
with people who have specific caring knowledge, skills and gifts, and/or lived
experience.

HOW CAN I PARTICIPATE?

AFCNA wants to promote compassionate faith communities. We’d love to see every
Christian faith community across Australia promoting whole-person health and
providing effective, compassionate care to people in need within their faith
community and the community they serve.





I’M INTERESTED IN FAITH COMMUNITY CARE

AFCNA can equip you to be compassionate, willing and able to effectively
sustain, guide, support and care for one another via a ministry of Faith
Community Care. 

We all struggle in different ways, but every person also has unique gifts that
they can use to encourage and build up another person (Romans 12:4-6a NIV). The
Bible says “Each person should use whatever gift they have received to serve
others…”(1 Peter 4:10a NIV). It’s a big mission and a great commission to ‘love
our neighbours’! We’d love to further equip you for that quest so you can become
the change you want to see in your own community.

I’M INTERESTED IN BECOMING A FAITH COMMUNITY NURSE

The Faith Community Nurse role provides an opportunity to combine your Christian
faith with your nursing knowledge and skills to effect healing, health and
wholeness in individuals, families and your community. 

Start by asking God for direction and to open an opportunity to serve. Then
inform yourself about the FCN role and discuss that information with key leaders
and health professionals in your church to garner their support. Take the free
‘Introduction to Faith Community Nursing’ lesson and continue to pray about this
call and see where God leads.

AS AN FCN I MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE IN SOMEONE’S LIFE RIGHT WHERE I LIVE – YOU
CAN TOO!

As a Faith Community Nurse (FCN) in my church I care for people holistically –
body, mind and spirit. Each person’s health is impacted by their relationships.
Their relationships with God, with other people, and with the creation,
therefore the support and care I bring considers those aspects as well. I begin
by listening to what’s happening for the person. Once I have heard their story I
offer to pray with them if they want this.

I provide various care services such as health counselling, 1:1 education about
their health condition, support with navigating various care systems, and
location of useful resources. I provide people with information and support so
they can make informed decisions and take appropriate actions that will benefit
their health and wellbeing, and where possible the family’s wellbeing.

God places us into community to “love one another” and in my FCN role I can
“love my neighbour” in a meaningful and tangible way. I am part of the health
and pastoral care ministry at my church. I bring a health focus that adds depth
and scope to our pastoral care. I use my professional knowledge and skills to
support many different situations for people of all ages in my church, and I
also provide an outreach ministry to our local community.
Opportunities in the FCN role are vast and life-changing for the people we
serve. I thoroughly recommend churches consider adding an FCN to their pastoral
care ministry and experience for themselves the many benefits this role can
bring to their community.
