Chaplaincy Program
All residents continue to enjoy a rich tradition of spiritual services at the Church St. campus of Orlando Lutheran Towers. Pastoral care often involves prayer and scripture; it nearly always involves some level of counseling and spiritual support. Our non-sectarian pastoral staff has had advance training in ministering to persons who are ill, infirm or facing end of life issues. This includes spiritual support and counseling for these persons and their families as well as additional services which may be requested. Current religious activities include devotions, communion, seasonal programs, telephone devotions, grief support, prayer groups, Catholic Mass and weekly Catholic Rosary. The Chaplaincy program is under the direction of Pastor David Nixon and ministers to the denominational diversity found among the 10 or more religions represented on the campus. The importance of spiritual care to the well being of the residents has been given a very high priority by management as an integral part of the delivery of care campus wide.
