Boston


A number of years ago, I went to Boston and invested a week at the Westin Hotel which is located at the finish line of the Boston Marathon. It was one of several conferences on spirituality and healing in medicine put on by the Harvard Medical School that I attended. HMS is really centered in the various major hospitals in downtown Boston. It was about the healing power of ministry. It was about the necessity for chaplains in medical facilities. It was about how chaplains and physicians can and should work together to prolong quality, human life.
Chaplains are first responders and are there until the last person - patient or medical professional - needs them. They are working right now in Boston to help people get through the crisis there.
