"La Visita Pastoral en Perspectiva Teologica: Principios de Acompanamiento y Consejeria Cristiana"

Pastoral visitation is an essential aspect of Christian ministry, dating back to the earliest centuries of the church. It represents a holistic approach to the spiritual care of individuals, involving accompaniment, consolation, counsel, and—above all—being an embodied presence of Christ’s love. In this article, I propose a methodology for conducting pastoral visits grounded in theological, exegetical, eschatological, and hermeneutical principles that have been tested throughout the centuries. This methodology aims not only to provide a practical structure but also to offer a spiritual and theological framework to guide pastors and leaders in every encounter.
