Here is a sampling of comments that we have received from those going through our pastoral counseling program:
-
My counseling experience is one I won't forget, nor will I forget my counselor. I'm not sure I would have made it through last semester without this counseling opportunity. Everything I said was taken seriously, and it was looked at as very significant.
-
I just wanted to express my sincere thanks for the monetary help I have received through the (partnership) foundation. I am thankful that it has enabled me to get help for a chronic problem.
-
It really helped me grow an incredible amount. Russell provided me with the help I needed.
-
My wife and I were both able to realize that the other had legitimate issues and begin to solve them.
-
If I had not been able to meet with my counselor I don't know how I would have been able to deal with the serious issues I've had and will continue to face. My gratitude to you goes beyond words. I am so fortunate to have this opportunity to get my life back on track.

The (Partnership) Foundation graciously granted me funding which allowed me to continue pastoral counseling sessions with Jeanine Siler Jones. I received excellent supportive care and came to rely upon her for her guidance and comforting presence. I would not have been able to continue our sessions had it not been for the grant from the (Partnership)Foundation. I would have had to discontinue counseling at a time when I truly needed pastoral care and spiritual support.
-
I do not know that I would have done without the help of the Pastoral Counseling Foundation. It has helped me through a difficult time in my life. It continues to support my healing process. Thanks for being there.

I would like to thank you for the scholarship which allowed me to continue to afford clinical therapy with Jeanine Siler Jones on a regular basis. In the fall I began graduate school and thus had to change insurance companies. Under the new plan I had a nine month waiting period until I could begin coverage. As a full time seminary student and part time student pastor I would not have been able to meet the expense of seeing a counselor during this time of transition and new beginnings without the help of the foundation. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.

I am a patient of Diane Stamey. I am writing this letter in appreciation of all the sessions you and the (Partnership)Foundation have approved for me. I have really had a rough year, and if not for you, I don't know what I would have done. Because of you, I was able to continue my treatment with Diane. Severe depression and panic/anxiety disorder has been very hard to deal with. Just knowing that you can get help when you need it helps so much. I personally wanted to thank you.
