âSo many factors affect peopleâs ability to recover and cope. Spiritual care
   helps support those things you canât sort out with just medication and
                                procedures.â
 â The Rev. Neville Markham, Methodist minister and part-time staff chaplain
                    at Royal Bolton Hospital in London.


John Wesley and black colleges

   LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (UMNS) â The United Methodist Church, the first mainline
   denomination to articulate social principles, actualizes its social gospel
   through a variety of means, including its support of the historically black
   colleges and universities, writes Walter M. Kimbrough, president of
   Philander Smith College. As the 150th anniversary of the end of slavery
   approaches, an emergency still exists, Kimbrough notes.

British cite importance of hospital chaplains

   LONDON (UMNS) â âSpirituality, in its holistic form, is an important part of
   health and well-being. Chaplains are an integral part of everything here,â
   said Lesley Doherty, who heads the 658-bed [26]Royal Bolton Hospital and
   community-care services assisting some 263,000 people in Englandâs
   northwest. âMost people we deal with have a faith. We feed them (in the
   hospital), so why wouldnât we attend to their spiritual needs as well?â

   decades later in Britain.
