Selwyn Village Auckland write:
“A voice from Europe: Rev. Dr. Christa Gäbler visits from Switzerland.
During recent decades the number of elderly people in Europe has increased dramatically. This development forms a challenge to politics and churches. Christa Gäbler gives an answer from a pastoral point of view. She herself has worked as a minister and authored two books on spiritual care of the elderly. At present she is involved in a research project on religion and ageing.”
