A Forum Series on Preparing for the Late Season & End of Life

Sundays, Feb 22 – Mar 22, 10:15am
Nativity Hall

In the Burial Office of the Book of Common Prayer, we proclaim that in death “life is changed, not ended.” This Lenten forum series invites us to take that proclamation seriously—not only at the moment of death, but throughout the later seasons of life that lead toward it. Rooted in a theology of creation, incarnation, and resurrection, these five weeks explore the biological, theological, legal, financial, and liturgical dimensions of dying and death. Together, we will reflect on how Christian hope does not deny grief, how preparation can be an act of love, and how attending carefully to life’s ending can deepen our capacity to bless beauty throughout all the seasons of life and even in that crossing over to death.

After attending, an optional week of available 60-minute appointments with either Rev. Scott or Padre Toni, for personal discussion and funeral planning, will be made available during the Easter season.
