Religious institutions and nurses have a common bond—both are committed to empowering individuals to achieve their full potential and believe in the self‐care capacity of individuals. The purpose of this study was to examine parish nursing as an evolving model of care within faith communities. Annualization of monthly reports and parish nurse interviews revealed that parish nurse activities contributed to the empowerment process and to the attainment of Healthy People 2000 objectives.
