Heart to Heart: Pastoring Maori Culturally at the End of Life by Allen S. Foote

When a non-Maori pastor is faced with ministering to Maori parishioners faced with the stresses and traumas of end-of-life situations, either as the patient or as a member of the family, there are issues at stake that need to be handled with much understanding and cultural sensitivity. Little if anything has been written to address this issue. Allen Foote, in researching this subject, offers a practical and insightful view into the processes and protocols that are vital to this compassionate ministry.
