More
need to be done and can be done by way of outreach counseling by parishes,
dioceses & religious. I feel active involvement by the 'Church' in creating
awareness of Integrative (body-mind-environment-spirit) well-being and suitable
facilities/arrangements towards the same is the need ('Call to Serve') of the
present times.
