What lessons are we learning from the hospitalization of Pope Francis about the health and wellbeing of pastoral agents? Fr Stan Chu Ilo reflects on the health challenges of pastors and how our pastors can be transparent with their health, and embrace health improvement, healthy lifestyle, and simple health protection and prevention practices. He proposes that pastoral agents cannot take care of God's people or God's Church if they cannot take care of their health.
