The medical literature increasingly recognises the important link between spirituality and health. Yet many Christian health professionals feel frustrated by the challenge of integrating faith and practice within the time constraints and legal obligations of the workplace. GMC guidelines approve discussions of faith issues with patients provided it is done appropriately and sensitively.
Christians are called to be ‘the salt of the earth’ flavouring life with grace and truth. Saline Process is a one-day course designed to help Christian healthcare professionals become more comfortable addressing a person’s spiritual needs in a clinical context. There is a mixture of teaching and small group discussion.
The course will take place from 9:3am0 -5pm on Saturday, 3 October 2026, Portswood Church, Southampton. Refreshements will be served from 9:15am, with a prompt 09:30am start – refreshments and a light lunch will be provided.

How to the Church
The main church building is on Portswood Road just south of the junction with Brookvale Road – opposite the Waitrose car park. Parking is unfortunately just for the training team/ anybody with accessibility needs but there is public parking on residential streets nearby or paid for car parks. There is a bus stop outside the church building on routes U1, U6 and First 3.
