Ministering to people with dementia

What a privilege it was today to be with more than 80 people all keen to know how they can minister to people with dementia and their families.  Together we went on a journey of understanding, exploring some of the spiritual and emotional needs of people living with dementia.
Realising once again the importance of knowing the person, entering into their reality and seeing beyond the dementia. 
Such uplifting stories of people with dementia touched by music, prayer, worship and Scriptures that affirm their identity. Glimpses of hope amidst the reality of this harsh disease.
Though they may forget our visits, they'll remember the feelings we left them with for much longer.
​The message I am taking home is let's not forget people with dementia: stay connected, come alongside; reaffirm their identity and journey with them and their carers along this path.
