It was established at the outset that at the moment there is virtually no link at all in some traditions, where people have come to regard faith and health as separate entities. In this case, faith communities have abdicated their role in healing ministries, and tend to make health the sole responsibility of health workers and the state. It was agreed by everyone in the group that forming a link between faith and health could be extremely advantageous. It should be the responsibility of the individual and the community to give support.
Health embraces the triumvirate concepts of body, mind , and spirit .
Therefore, faith communities should be taking on health issues and health care facilities should be including faith communities. There is a common language between faith and health, and probably the most important example of this is that understanding what it means to be human is at the core of both health and faith. Faith communities can help build up the morale of medical staff, because at the moment they really feel not cared for or affirmed. Some of the reasons for this include the fact that they work extremely long hours, hospitals are overcrowded, and resources are very limited. Faith communities can also help people make moral choices concerning their lifestyles, because, more often than not, it is peoples' lifestyles that are responsible for their ill-health.
