Episode description as stored
What does it mean to simply be there when someone is facing the unimaginable? In this episode of Voices of Resiliency, Kris Pace and Michael Pellegrino sit down with Gary Holden, longtime chaplain, crisis intervention instructor, and Director of Chaplain Services for Resilient Minds. Gary shares how answering the call to serve at Ground Zero after 9/11 changed the course of his life, inspiring him to build and expand chaplain programs that have trained more than a thousand people to support first responders, families, and communities in crisis. But that service came with a cost. Years later, Gary was diagnosed with aggressive stage-four prostate cancer linked to his time at the World Trade Center—and given approximately six months to live. More than eight years later, even as he faces cancer again, his faith, purpose, and commitment to serving others remain unwavering. This is resilience through presence, community, faith, and continuing to move forward.
