Abstract

ABSTRACT Using Thematic Analyses the experiences of thriving in ministry were explored across generations of Catholic women religious (N = 1116). Participants responded to open-ended questions regarding their dis/satisfaction with religious life. Sisters expressed concerns about ministry that demanded their energy and time normally needed for community prayer and living. Sisters reported on vital experiences that support their thriving in ministry. Furthermore, Sisters value support from their congregation and the collaboration with ministry partners. Strikingly, these results highlight important factors similar to the findings of research on the workforce and clergy ministry satisfaction.

培养女神职人员幸福感的因素及其与劳动力研究的共鸣

摘要采用主题分析的方法，探讨了天主教女修会会士的成长经历(N = 1116)。参与者回答了关于他们对宗教生活的不满/满意的开放式问题。修女们表达了对事工的担忧，因为这需要她们通常用于社区祈祷和生活的精力和时间。姐妹们报告了支持她们在事工中茁壮成长的重要经历。此外，姊妹们重视会众的支持和与事工伙伴的合作。引人注目的是，这些结果突出了与劳动力和神职人员满意度研究结果相似的重要因素。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Spirituality in Mental Health is an interdisciplinary professional journal (retiled from American Journal of Pastoral Counseling to better reflect its broader scope) that is devoted to the scholarly study of spirituality as a resource for counseling and psychotherapeutic disciplines. This peer-reviewed quarterly journal seeks to enhance the understanding of spirituality as a core component of human well-being in individual, relational, and communal life. Leading authorities provide insights into research and effective therapy in an interdisciplinary dialog that crosses the disciplines of psychology, spirituality, theology, sociology, cultural analysis, and other fields.
