| Summary: | ConclusionsThrough feedback, we learned about the expectations of the participants. Most of them wanted a stimulating experience that would bring them closer to their parishioners. They hoped to improve their communication skills. Some few expected a "crash counseling course." The latter may have been disappointed, since the real outcome of the in-service experiences was in the area of attitudes.Evaluation sheets, handed in at the last meeting, indicated the need for more in-service projects. Some pastors felt that the workshop had made them realize how much more is involved in counseling than they had thought. Others commented on the tolerant attitude of the group, which helped them overcome their own defensiveness. Some said they had become more aware of their feelings and values.It was generally felt by participants and workshop faculty that the effort was worthwhile. |
