St Luke's for Clergy Wellbeing

10/02/2026

We are so pleased to be sharing this webpage created by our friends The Church in Wales / Yr Eglwys yng Nghymru

Through a partnership between the Church in Wales and St Luke’s for Clergy Wellbeing, this new programme provides clergy with access to trained and accredited pastoral supervisors who understand the realities of ministry. Over an 18‑month period, participants receive dedicated time to explore their vocation, their context, and the pressures they hold, with the aim of strengthening resilience, nurturing self‑awareness, and enabling flourishing in their ongoing service.

Special thanks to for funding this work.

Anglicans form the family of Christians closely related to the Archbishop of Canterbury. Whilst tracing their inheritance back to Christ and the earliest Christians and to the ancient Roman Catholic church, the sixteenth century Reformation was a crucial moment for Anglicanism.

Read Dr Tim's latest blog reflecting on two ideas that may or may not shape our leadership and organisational life: humility and visibility.

As the New Year begins, we are sharing a conversation we had with our friend, Sister Beverley from The Community and Society of St Francis (European Province) .

Sister Beverley spoke with St Luke's as part of our Talking Heads Talking Wellbeing project, asking different people what they do to look after their mental health. We will be showing others throughout the year.

But for now, we hope you enjoy Sister Beverley sharing how she uses prayer to sustain her.

Many thanks to Sister Beverley.

Wishing you all a Peaceful New Year
