“I appreciated my cohort, my mentors and educator and the opportunity to gain confidence in providing pastoral care.”

“There are many things that I appreciated about the program …most of all seeing the ways God was at work not only with myself, but with the rest of my cohort guiding us to the places we needed to be, the patients we needed to be with, and opening our hearts and minds to be able to provide the spiritual care that the patients needed.”

Of the CPE interns participating in Anne Arundel Medical Center’s CPE program recommend it to others!

What Former CPE Students Have Said In An Exit Interview

“The Chaplain Mentors were transparent, honest. They gave us the freedom to check in with them and also showed us they cared by asking about how we were doing.”

“Didactics were good.”

“Our mentors were exceptional, offering us their time and wisdom. It was helpful learning about clinical chaplaincy from staff chaplains with more hands-on experience.”

“I learned as much about myself and where I needed to stretch and grow as I did about chaplaincy. It has become a calling now for me.”

“Paula is a treasure and deeply committed to our success. I enjoyed working with and learning from her.”
