The message given in Pilgrim Center healing retreats for survivors of the genocide and war is: "The world has not forgotten or abandoned you as its brothers and sisters, and we  have come from them, to stand with you on their behalf."

In this book, The Rev Dr Arthur A Rouner, Jr, a parish minister for 40 years, lays out a theology for ministry through presence, based on the ministry of Jesus. It is a simple, practical, effective approach for reaching people who are difficult to reach, who are often withdrawn, silently suffering, and probably at the edges of Church life. Brokenness, Dr. Rouner says, is a condition of the soul of people high and low. It is a condition of the rich as well as the poor. It is a state of the heart. The broken can be found in all sorts of places,  he says. The Church, as the Shepherd of the sheep, is called to find them, and heal their hearts.
