This Clergy Care ministry is designed to help clergy in the South Carolina Conference of The United Methodist Church access resources and opportunities for support and personal growth. Clergy Care is not a substitute for or a segue to administrative requirements and procedures under The Book of Discipline. The creation of a brave space is important to this ministry. However, if you are expressing or exhibiting suicidal cues, including but not limited to those listed below, it is our obligation out of care for you to report these cues in an attempt to get you the professional help you need.
