''I have been part of the DCA Telephone Befrienders network for a few years now and I’ve found one of the joys is sharing conversations, building relationships and offering a supportive, listening ear, to all our wonderful carers.  For some this may be the only regular contact they receive, a true lifeline. I’m also aware how isolated some people can feel and this includes spiritual isolation and that’s where I might be of some help, as I’m also an Anglican Priest.''

 

''So, after a conversation with the DCA, I thought I would offer myself as a point of contact for prayers or conversations for anyone within the network.''

 

''I can be contacted via email in revbruce18@gmail.com, and will try to come back to you as soon as possible. Please remember I am always praying for all the wonderful work that DCA and its Carers and the Befrienders network undertake, so you are never alone.''

 

''Blessings and Prayers''

 

''Rev Bruce''
