The purpose of this study was to explore perspectives on suicide prevention held by members of Christian faith-based organizations (FBOs). Eight focus groups were facilitated, and five major themes were identified: perceptions of responsibility, connection to suicidal persons, equipping for suicide prevention, collaboration with professional services, and hope. Overall, Christian FBO members considered suicide prevention to be an important demonstration of their faith and values. They perceived themselves to be currently adding to suicide prevention efforts through spiritual practices and interpersonal skills, but regarded these as insufficient if considered stand-alone responses. They recognized the receipt of suicide prevention training and collaboration with professional services as necessary to be fittingly engaged as a resource for suicide prevention.
本研究旨在探讨基督教信仰组织（FBO）成员对预防自杀的看法。共进行了 8 个焦点小组，确定了 5 个主要主题：对责任的认知、与自杀者的联系、预防自杀的装备、与专业服务的合作以及希望。总的来说，基督教 FBO 成员认为预防自杀是他们信仰和价值观的重要体现。他们认为自己目前通过精神实践和人际交往技巧为预防自杀做出了贡献，但如果仅考虑这些方法，则认为这些方法还不够充分。他们认识到接受预防自杀培训和与专业服务合作是适当参与预防自杀的必要条件。
