  • Are preparing for a major procedure or feel distressed by difficult life issues or decisions
  • Have suffered a recent loss or are struggling with finding or creating a sense of meaning in difficult times
  • Would like a blessing, prayer, or meditation or are seeking support through your own religious or spiritual resources
