Pastoral care in the digital age: help quickly and easily!

On April 24, 2025, various pastoral offers in Germany established themselves as valuable support in difficult life situations. The Catholic Church of Göttingen offers the opportunity to book pastoral talks online. These conversations can take place either digitally or personally, which creates a flexible choice for everyone interested. Direct contact with the respective contact persons is required for special pastoral care, such as hospital or old people's home pastoral care. Everyone can inquire about a pastoral interview without having to exist special requirements or exclusion criteria, as https://www.katholische-kirche-goettingen.de/angebote/selsorge/) reports.

In addition to these offers, there is the possibility of online pastoral care provided by the Evangelical Church in Kurhessen-Waldeck. Telephone counseling offers several phone numbers for acute crisis situations: +49 800 111 0 111, +49 800 111 0 222 and 116 123. Contents offered via email or online chat enable uncomplicated access to pastoral care. There is also a mailing institution that allows those seeking advice to establish long -term contact, similar to the exchange using letters. The first answer to e-mails usually takes place within 72 hours. Chateelsorge is available to have immediate written conversations, whereby previous appointments must be made. Registration for the chat does not require the name or address, but a functioning email address, such as [ekkw.de.
