Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center

All of us at one time or another wrestle with questions of meaning, hope, despair, faith and doubt. These are spiritual issues that go beyond particular religious traditions and connect us to one another in our shared experiences. The mission of the chaplains at Johns Hopkins Bayview is to provide spiritual and emotional compassion and comfort to patients, their loved ones, staff and volunteers at the Medical Center as they encounter these questions.

We invite you to explore our website in the hopes that you will learn about us, engage with us in service and education, and respond to us with your own ideas and spiritual care journey.

A Moment of Reflection

We invite you to reflect on your wishes for peace in our communities. Listen to this brief meditation, led by Dr. Neda Gould, director of the mindfulness program, and take a moment to send well-wishes to yourself and to others.

Pastoral Care Resources

We can offer you a variety of supplementary resources for you and your spiritual journey. Our hope is that the theological writings, various prayers and faith specific resources will provide comfort, spiritual and emotional support and reflective nourishment for the soul.
