title: Art as a tool for pastoral care.
abstract: Argues for the use of art in the delivery of pastoral care, especially with small children, the handicapped, and persons with emotional problems. Offers an example of such usage with a hospitalized spastic quadraplegic boy. Explores ways in which one's faith also might be expressed using visual modes rather than verbal ones.
