Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this research is to help clergy families who have been hurt and been abused by congregation in their circuits. This is a sporadic in many churches, particularly in mainline churches. The study is dealing with clergy, minister and their families who have been attacked in the church chapel even in the manse. Most circuits when a clergy is sent to their circuits to sever, congregation thinks they own the church, they own the manse, they think they can do whatever they want, and abuse the clergy families.
This thesis will try to show kinds of leaders the church is having. It will also show how congregation are cruel and easing influence. What makes things worse is that the church faced with church discipline, most of the time clergies are many even today, there are clergies who are in the waiting list waiting for disciplinary hearings as they have been charged, and congregations lay their charges.
Since the researcher has been is the church for guide sometime, his experience let him to make a thorough study. It will also try to introduce and make the top leaders to deal with this kind of issue thoroughly. That is why most children of clergy families when growing up they are also wounded emotional
It is the wish of the researcher to equip church leaders and to help clergy families to deal with the congregational abuse.Dissertation (MA (Theology))--University of Pretoria, 2018.

Full textAbstract:
Infidelity of clergy has been defined as a culture, by those who believe in
polygamous marriage. Women are often controlled by men and very few
societies exhibit an equalitarian relationship. One paramount way in which men
control women is through sex and sexual power. Infidelity is abuse because the
characteristics of the unfaithful are like those of a battered and the symptoms of
the victim are like those of the battered. Sitting in on battered women’s group, I
heard the same things-women wanting to go back; full of anger and rage, saying
they’d rather be beaten than wonder where their partner was sleeping at night.
The researcher is ministering among Pondo and Bhaca people who are no
strangers to this oppressing practice. Few marriages in these days last beyond
few years, because infidelity has become such an accepted alternative way of
living and working out marital problems. The problem disturbed author’s
ministry as a junior minister. As result I am researching this problem so as to
come out with a theory that will help to address this issue.
Clergy spouses approach the act of infidelity very painful, they ended up
traumatizing their own spouses, children and their ministry. One of my
favourite clergy in Pondo even resigned his pastorate about a year ago due to
adultery and fathering a child outside of his marriage. All of these high profile
ministers have been involved in some form of infidelity. But still the powerful
words from Paul in 1 Corinthians 10:13 “no temptation has overtaken you
except such as is common to man, but God is faithful, who will not allow you
to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make
the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it”. Today, many churches invite unfaithful itinerant clergies to preach to their
congregations unaware of the spiritual poison they are injecting directly into the
life blood of their congregations and the Christian community. No wonder many
churches are so full of infidelity, dishonesty and immorality of the worst kind.
Clergy spouses decided to stay in their marriage are taught forgiveness, so that
they can move away from their traumatic experience.Dissertation (MA Theol)--University of Pretoria, 2013.

Full textAbstract:
The research deals with trauma and violence as these affect women and children in the parsonage household when the clergy experience brutal attacks by parishioners. It focuses on the clergy households of the Methodist Church of Southern Africa especially within the black congregations. So, the hypothesis to this research is that the clergy, within the Methodist Church Of Southern Africa, are ‘crucified’, but no one cares for their families during these ‘crucifixions’- their well- being, feelings, anxiety and safety and security. No one listens to their stories. No one journeys with them. The only thing the church does, is to transfer the affected minister to another circuit wounded and unhealed. The question dealt with in this research is, where do the clergy go when they go through crisis situations? Do they really need pastoral care? Who cares for their families when they the clergy are the direct victims of violence or emotional attacks? Where do they find healing and counseling? For, it is the children and spouse of the clergy that are adversely affected when the clergy go through crisis, because, when one member of the family suffers, the whole body is affected. The research therefore investigates how the church, especially the MCSA has pastorally responded to the impact these ‘crucifixions’ have had on the emotions of the family members of the clergy; the extent and nature of the traumatic experiences of ministers’ families; the difficulties and problems faced by the church to address these problems and finally, make some personal recommendations to the church to effectively deal with these problems. The research concludes by suggesting a model of pastoral care that will help the church to deal with traumatic experiences of its clergy, for the obligation of the church to concern itself with suffering stems from the Bible where prophets and Jesus teach about love. This therefore, is a demonstration that it is imperative for the church to involve itself through pastoral guidance in dealing with such conflicts and its effects in the lives of ministers’ families.

Ensuite, il faudra étudier les caractéristiques de leurs fonctions afin de mieux cerner leur importance respective. Ces deux premières phases du développement constitueront le préalable à une approche historique, tentant de situer chaque personnage par rapport au pharaon régnant, mais également par rapport aux autres notables contemporains. De cette manière, il sera sans doute possible de comprendre le rôle qu’ils ont pu jouer et leur impact sur l’histoire de l’Égypte de la fin du Nouvel Empire, qui précéda la Troisième Période IntermédiaireIn the continuity of my works executed before, the project will be to reconstruct the best possible the history of high priests of Egypt during the End of the New Kingdom, main characters of local power. This goal will require a gathering and a thorough analysis of archaeologic documents this high personages have left : steles, low-relief, statues, funerary monuments... This first work will allow foremost to achieve a chronology and to understand the genealogy of involved families, then relationship between its. Then, I will have to study caracteristics of their functions to better understand their significance. This first two phases of the development will constitute the introduction to an historical essay, which will try to site each character in relation with Pharaoh and also with others characters of the same time. In this way, we will be certainly able to understand their role and impact on the history of Egypt of the end of the New Kingdom, just before the Third Intermediary Period

The focus of this study was on traumatic suicide attempt due to lack of
remuneration to the clergy by the church: a pastoral care perspective. The
assumption was that no one in the church took responsibility of caring for
clergy families. Trauma referred to a spiritual wound in the soul of humankind
and it is a spiritual event when humankind was experiencing loss of faith, loss
of hope, loss of trust, loss of meaning, loss of innocence and when the spiritual
wound was being healed spiritually. Suicide was defined as purely personal act
that appeared to be entirely the outcome of the extreme personal unhappiness of
the minister who as a result of non-payment of their stipend by the church. The
operational framework of research methodology included: the research design,
literature review and interviews; data collection method and data analysis and
interpretation. The Uniting Presbyterian Church in Southern Africa belongs to the Reformed family of the Protestant churches. In this project, semi-structured
scheduled interview open-ended Questions were designed to allow interviewers

Research on the ordination of women has focused on the effect in the church and on aspects of the personality of the women choosing the priesthood but not on effects on the families of ordained women. Using personal interviews, the Dyadic Adjustment Scale and the Bem Sex Role Inventory, spouses in 12 families which contain ordained women from Episcopalian, Methodist, Unity and The Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints churches were analyzed to determine the effects of ordination on the families. Couples containing an ordained female were found to have slightly higher marital adjustment and significantly higher levels of androgyny than a standardized sample. Androgyny and marital adjustment were significantly correlated. The more androgenous, the greater the marital adjustment.

Full textAbstract:
[Truncated abstract] The Ferrars are remembered as exemplars of Anglican piety. The London merchant family quit the city in 1625 and moved to the isolated manor of Little Gidding in Huntingdonshire. There they pursued a life of corporate devotion, supervised by the head of the household, Nicholas Ferrar, until he died in December 1637. To date, the life of the pious deacon Nicholas Ferrar has been the focus of histories of Little Gidding, which are conventionally hagiographical and give little consideration to the experiences of other members of the family, not least the many women in the household. Further, customary representations of the Ferrars have tended to remove them from their seventeenth-century context. Countering the biographical trend that has obscured many details of their communal life, this thesis provides a new, critical reading of the family's years at Little Gidding while Nicholas Ferrar was alive. It examines the Ferrars in terms of their own time, as far as possible using contemporary documents instead of later accounts and confessional mythology. It shows that, while certain aspects of life at Little Gidding were unusual, on the whole the family was less exceptional than traditional histories have implied; certainly the family was not so unified and unworldly as the idealised images have suggested. Moreover, the Ferrars were actively engaged in making those images, for immediate effect and for posterity. The Ferrars' identities, corporate and individual, and their largely textual practices of self-fashioning are central to the study. Other key concerns are the Ferrars' moral and religious ideals and practices, gender in the family, and intra-familial relationships. Evidence for the thesis is drawn from family documents dating from the early years of the seventeenth century to the time of Nicholas Ferrar's death. ... The Little Academy is considered first: in this unique dialogue circle, young women discussed morally edifying historical tales, offering them a textually-mediated experience of the world and working to reinforce conventional gender roles and religious values. The final three chapters pertain to the copious and little-studied family correspondence. A chapter that develops a theory of the functions of the family correspondence network is followed by one studying the affective relationships that the celibate sisters Mary and Anna Collet maintained through their letters with their unmarried uncle and spiritual mentor, Nicholas Ferrar. These chapters consider the identities as single people that all three developed through these relationships, within the maritally-focused framework of the Protestant family. The last chapter also concerns the lives of the unmarried, examining the relationships of single male adults and their roles in the family, focusing on the friendship of Nicholas Ferrar and his cousin Arthur Woodnoth. The thesis closes by reflecting on the fact that returning the Ferrars to their seventeenth-century context reveals their multi-faceted nature, comprising ideals and identities sometimes incongruous with one another, and certainly unaccounted for in the traditional narratives. It thus demonstrates the importance of the overall project of reconceiving the Ferrars? history, which forms an original contribution to the study of the social, cultural and religious history of early seventeenth-century England.

Full textAbstract:
Pendant deux siècles, les Centraméricains ont cherché vainement à briser les chaînes de la désunion. Ces peuples supportnet aujourd'hui encore les conséquences de ces identités nationales inventées par des élites repliées sur elles-mêmes. Pourtant jamais ces hommes et ces femmes, "Elus du Monde", ne furent aussi près d'unir en une seule nation les peuples centraméricains que pendant l'expérience fédérale de 1823 à 1837. Ils étaient alors en position de réussir la pleine intégration des peuples indigènes et ladino dans un creuset national homogène susceptible de garantir une pleine indépendance et une plus grande prospérité. Pourquoi ont-ils échoué ? L'analyse pour cette période d'un corpus prosopographique des membres du haut clergé, les "Elus de Dieu", nous montre que quelques familles de pouvoir, s'appuyant plus particulièrement sur des réseaux clericaux portent une responsabilité très importante dans ce dénouement tragique. Notre démarche nous a amené à reconsidérer l'impact de la « seconde conquête de l'Amérique » par l'administration des Bourbons (le décalage entre les volontés de réforme affichées et des résultats qui, au lieu d'affaiblir l'Eglise, auraient conduit à sa plus grande centralisation et facilité sa prise de contrôle par quelques familles au moment de l'Indépendance). Par une révision minutieuse des rouages économiques qui permettaient le focntionnement de l'Eglise, nous expliquons comment un bloc idéologique conservateur, au sens gramscien, a pu se créer et provoquer de la part des élites provinciales le recours fatal à la guerre pour imposer leurs points de vueDuring two centuries, the Central Americans have tried unsuccessfully to break the chain of disunion. These people are still facing with the consequences of those national identities found out by elites retired within themselves. And yet, these men and women, "Elected of the World", have never been so near to unite the central american peoples into one nation than during the federal experience from 1823 to 1837. They were in a position to realize the full integration of indigenas and ladinos in a homogeneous melting pot that could assure a full independence and a larger prospeity. Why did they fall ? The analysis for the period of a prosopographical corpus of some members of high church, the "Elected of God", shows us that some power families, particularly relying on clerical nets, bear the heavy responsability of this tragic ending. Our methodology led us to reconsider the impact of the "second conquest of America" by the Bourbons administration (the gap between the will to reform and the result of it that, instead of making the Church weaker, would at the contrary have led to its greater centralisation and made easier its control by a few families at the time of Independence). By carefully reconsidering the economic wheels which made possible to the Church to operate, we are trying to explain how an ideologically conservative coalition, in a Gramscian meaning, could appear and produce the fatal use of war by provincial elites in order to dictate their point of view

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse vise à mettre en lumière le rôle du groupe familial dans l'organisation de la société égyptienne au début de la XVIIIe dynastie (d'Amosis à Amenhotep II) à partir de l'étude des origines des membres du clergé. Une analyse préliminaire du vocabulaire de la parenté utilisé durant la période fournit les éléments nécessaires à la reconstitution des généalogies des prêtres et des prêtresses. Cet examen lexicographique montre en effet que les termes de parenté sont employés de façon très précise. Le croisement des données généalogiques et prosopographiques permet ensuite de mettre en évidence une forte reproduction professionnelle au sein du clergé. Ce phénomène, replacé dans son contexte historique et social, traduit, en l'absence d'un principe de transmission héréditaire des prêtrises ou de nomination directe par le souverain, l'existence de stratégies familiales d'implantation dans les temples. Ceci conduit dès lors à revoir la définition de la famille égyptienne et à réévaluer son rôle dans le fonctionnement de la société. Les groupes familiaux étudiés s'avèrent en effet organisés sur le modèle de “maisons” aristocratiques, avec de nombreux membres appartenant à des catégories hiérarchisées (consanguins, alliés, dépendants, proches…) et liés par des intérêts communs. Ces maisons, dont la position et la capacité d'action sont reconnues, structurent la société et constituent des partenaires privilégiés pour le pouvoir central qui se met en place au début de la XVIIIe dynastie. En marge de la problématique d'histoire sociale, il faut signaler la découverte, de portée plus générale, du rôle des contraintes graphiques dans la composition des textes hiéroglyphiquesThis thesis aims at bringing to light the function of the familial group in the organization of the Egyptian society during the beginning of the XVIIIth dynasty (from Amosis to Amenhotep II) from the study of the familial background of the priesthood. A prior analysis of kinship terminology used during the period provides data allowing the reconstruction of genealogies of priests and priestesses. This lexicographical study shows that terms of kinship are indeed used unequivocally. Then, by crossing genealogical and prosopographical informations, a trend of professional reproduction can be noticed within the priesthood. Replaced in its historic and social context, this phenomenon reveals, as there is no rule of hereditary transmission neither direct appointment by the king, the existence of family strategies for settling in temples. This leads to revise the definition of the egyptian family and to revalue its role in the functionning of society. Indeed, the studied family groups appear to be organised like aristocratic “houses”, gathering numerous members belonging to various ranked groups (blood relatives, relatives by marriage, dependants, close relations…) sharing common interests. These houses, which position and capacity of action are recognized, structure the society and are privileged partners for the newly established central power at the beginning of the XVIIIth dynasty. Outside the main study of social history, a discovery of more general impact has to be to point out, that is the role played by graphic necessities in the composition of hieroglyphic texts

Full textAbstract:
L'objet de cette étude est de comprendre la nature et l'évolution des relations entre la noblesse et l'Eglise du début du XIe siècle aux années 1340, à travers l'exemple de trois familles de la haute aristocratie provençale : les vicomtes de Marseille, les Baux (basse Provence) et les Agoult-Simiane (haute Provence). Durant ces trois siècles et demi, l'émancipation de l'institution ecclésiale, l'essor des seigneuries ecclésiastiques, l'élargissement des prérogatives pastorales des évêques, les renouvellements du monachisme, les mutations de la vie religieuse, ainsi que la concentration des pouvoirs au profit des comtes puis des rois de Sicile, transforment profondément les modalités et le sens de ces relations. Jusqu'à la fin du XIe siècle, l'héritage carolingien demeure prépondérant : à l'échelle locale, dans le cadre du "pagus " ou de la seigneurie, les grandes familles assurent la protection de l'Eglise et détiennent l'initiative des mouvements de réforme, leur pouvoir en ressortant nettement sacralisé. A la fin du XIIIe siècle, après une profonde recomposition provoquée par la réforme grégorienne, la croisade albigeoise et le tournant pastoral, les grandes familles ont perdu leurs prérogatives ecclésiales au bénéfice des seuls clercs. Dans un horizon élargi à la Méditerranée occidentale, elles sont conduites à s'engager au service de l'Eglise théocratique et de la monarchie angevine et invitée à imiter la religion du prince. Cette évolution s'accompagne d'une mutation parallèle de la piété qui de rituelle, solennelle et profondément influencée par le monarchisme jusqu'au XIIIe siècle, devient peu à peu plus individuelle et plus intériorisée, en particulier sous l'influence des ordres mendiants. Il apparaît ainsi que durant les trois siècles du Moyen Age central les relations avec l'Eglise s'avèrent déterminantes pour l'histoire du groupe aristocratique.

Magister Artium (Social Work) - MA(SW)The role of statutory social workers is often misperceived by other role players in interdisciplinary teams; but even more so in the law fraternity spectrum. As such, social workers experience many challenges working with attorneys, magistrates and court clerks because they are often undermined by their counterparts in the interdisciplinary team. This places great strain on professional relationships in settings where these professions are required to work collaboratively, such as statutory services with children and families. Therefore, the aim of this study was to understand the role of the social worker in the interdisciplinary team providing statutory services to children and families in the Cape Metropole. The theoretical framework selected for this study is conflict theory, because it is suited to explain the often-strenuous relationship between social workers and the rest of the interdisciplinary team in the law fraternity.

Full textAbstract:
La domination des principautés ecclésiastiques de la Rhénanie moyenne par la chevalerie immédiate d'empire au cours des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles fait l'objet de cette thèse qui explore les liens entre l'originalité institutionnelle, la spécialisation sociale et l'organisation familiale d'un groupe de noblesse emblématique des élites du sud-ouest du saint-empire. L'étude, menée à partir de vingt lignages, montre d'abord comment la différenciation institutionnelle et confessionnelle conduit le groupe à devenir une véritable noblesse d'église qui se réserve chapitres cathédraux et sièges épiscopaux par l'application d'un exclusivisme nobiliaire struct et par la constitution de réseaux familiaux solides. Les stratégies matrimoniales sont ensuite étudiées à la fois sous l'angle de leur fermeture, rendue nécessaire par la sévérité des preuves de noblesse exigées par les chapitres, et sous celui de leurs adaptations aux évolutions politiques, aux succès ecclésiastiques et au caractère de plus en plus dynastique des lignages. Ce "resserrement lignager" est enfin appréhendé au travers de le démographie, de la répartition des tâches au sein des familles et du renforcement de la discipline des héritages : le lignage, réduit en nombre, se consacre désormais avant tout à la réussite ecclésiastique et à la conservation du patrimoine grâce à une redéfinition contractuelle du rôle de chacun.

D. Deals with the domination upon the ecclesiastical principalities in the middle rhineland by the imperial knights during the 17th and 18th centuries, and with the links between the institutions, the social specialization and the family organization among this nobility, that is a good example for the elites in the southwest holy empire. Focusing on twenty lineages, the stufy show first how institutional and confessional differenciation leads the group into becoming a real "church's nobility" that monopolizes the cathedral chapter and the episcopal seats through a thorough aristocratic exclusivism and strong kin networks. The matrimonial strategies are then described as closed ones, because of the genealogical proofs resuired from the canons by the chapters, but also as flexible ones, that can follow the political change, the episcopal success and the dynastisation of the lineages. This "tightening of the lineage" is fanally emphasized by considering its demographical aspects, the balance of power in the family and the reinforcement of the inheritance's discipline : numerically reduced, the lineage devotes a growing part of its energy to the ecclesiastical success and the conservation of the patrimony by contractually redefining the role of each of its members. In a wide comparative frame, this study not only emphasizes the importance of kinnetworks for the survival and adaptation of a self-governing nobility in oligarchical princebishoprics and in the southwest holy empire, that remains an original institutional and…

En terre de chrétienté, calviniste (les Cévennes) ou catholique (reste du Gévaudan-Lozère), une forte minorité s'est spécialisée dans la migration à vocation religieuse : refugiés huguenots après 1685, prédicants, prophètes et pasteurs, voire instituteurs en Cévennes, prêtres, frères, religieuses ou missionnaires ailleurs. Alors que la sécularisation du protestantisme autorise une entrée réussie en république, un catholicisme obsidional (depuis 1791) se dresse face à la modernité et jouit d'une inflation sans précédent de vocations, que nourrissent l'exil interieur, l'offre cléricale d'enseignement et de promotion, les intérêts complémentaires de l'église et des familles, et l'obsession renouvelée de la mort avunculaire ou dynastique. La vocation s'accumule dans des lignages privilegiés (terres, lettres, mandats et "appels") ; elle se mondialise (missions et refuges après les lois de 1880 et 1901-1904). La fécondité de la "terre des prêtres" s'épuise au XXe siecle ainsi que la spécialisation migratoire, scolaire ou politique des deux Lozère (ou des deux France). Exode rural et sécularisation ont conjugue leurs effets, vers un nouveau "desert".

Resumo: A perspectiva do concubinato como uma relação fortuita e instável no tempo está ligada ao trabalho de Caio Prado Júnior e historiadores que nele se basearam para descrever a vida do homem livre e pobre dentro do contexto da grande lavoura no Brasil, no século XIX. Segundo o sociólogo, o homem livre e pobre vegetava à margem da economia agroexportadora e, por isso, tornava-se ¿moralmente degradado¿. Uma nova geração de estudiosos, ao seguir esse raciocínio, revelou que esses homens encontravam nas relações passageiras e fortuitas a única maneira de se organizar em família. Segundo esses pesquisadores, o concubinato representava a ¿desclassificação social¿ em que estas pessoas viviam. O objetivo desta tese consiste em demonstrar que o concubinato era uma relação estável e semelhante ao casamento. A análise de uma documentação variada ¿ paroquial: visitas pastorais, dispensas matrimoniais e registros de casamento de consciência; judiciárias: processos de legitimação; e cartorária: inventários postmortem, testamentos ¿ aproximou, sob vários aspectos, o concubinato do casamento legítimo. A partir da análise da documentação paroquial, o peso da pobreza e da burocracia eclesiástica, supostamente elementos desencadeadores do concubinato, foi relativizado. O estudo dos registros de casamento de consciência revelou o quanto os valores culturais envolvendo o matrimônio eram internalizados pelos concubinos. A análise das dispensas matrimoniais tornou relativa a idéia de que os obstáculos canônicos eram fáceis de serem transpostos. Focalizou-se, a partir da documentação cartorária e judicial, a relação entre filhos ilegítimos e pais no que dizia respeito à sucessão da herança. As leis referentes à sucessão patrimonial em conjunto com processos de legitimação oriundos do Tribunal do Desembargo do Paço constituíram elementos importantes em nessa tese. Através da ligação nominal e do cruzamento de fontes, foram construídas pequenas biografias de casais concubinos que tiveram filhos. O ciclo de vida desses casais, em momentos diferentes, foi analisado. Foi possível verificar as disposições testamentárias deles, a divisão da herança ou o próprio encaminhamento da concubina pelo companheiro
Abstract: The perspective of concubinato (the state of a man and woman living together who did not marry nor in the church or registry office) as a random and instable relationship, is linked with Caio Prado Júnior and historians that based on Caio Prado Junior¿s works to describe the life of the poor man that survived on the edge of the agro exporting economy, and due to that, were morally, degraded. A new generation of scholars, following this thought, showed that these human beings found in these random and temporary relationships the only way to organize themselves in a family. According to these researchers, the concubinato represented the social declassification in which these people lived. The aim of this thesis is to show that the concubinato was a stable relationship similar to marriage. The analysis of varied documentation ¿ parochial: parish church visits, marriage informal documentation; and judicial documentation: legitimating processes; registry offices documentation post-morten inventories, testaments ¿ made it closer in various aspects the concubinato from legitimate marriage. From analyzing the parochial documentation, the weight of the poverty and ecclesiastical bureaucracy, supposedly elements originating the concubinate were relative. The study of marriage¿s informal documentation revealed how much the cultural values involving the matrimony were internalized by the partners together in a concubinato state. The analyses of the matrimonial licenses relativize the idea that the religious obstacles were easy to be overcome. We focused on the registry and judicial documentation between legitimate parents and children, regarding the heritage. The laws referring to the patrimonial succession together with the process originating from Tribunal of Paço constituted important elements in our work. Through names linking and from crossing sources, we built small biographies of couples that had kids in the concubinato. The cycle of life of these couples was analyzed in different moments. It was possible to verify testimonials, heritage divisions or the own course of his own partner

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of death on the family of the
pastor. The study poses a question of what pastoral care model can be used to help
the pastor’s family cope during their period of bereavement. A qualitative
methodological design was followed, allowing individual experiences to emerge. Five
female participants were interviewed. A qualitative analysis was undertaken in order
to explore their grief and coping mechanism during the period of bereavement.
The study traces the origin and causes of death, with the emphasis on African and
biblical perspectives. The aspect of how people make meaning of death is also
explored. The study revealed that death had a different impact according to their
different culture. Death leads to grief which can be psychological, emotional, social,
or spiritual.
Several themes emerged from the study. The themes were used to produce a
bereavement model that can be used to provide pastoral care to families during their
period of bereavement.Dissertation (MA Theol)--University of Pretoria, 2014.
