When working with those who are facing death &
grief, the spiritual aspect of the journey is one which can bring
the most strength, the most challenge, the most meaning & the most
conflict. How does a caretaker ask the questions that will
help them to walk with the person or the family they are supporting?
This day long workshop is offered to provide those who work with the
dying and grieving with the information and practical tools to
better understand and more sensitively support people of diverse
faiths.
We are pleased to present speakers of Aboriginal,
Buddhist, Mennonite, Muslim and Sikh traditions whose knowledge of their faith communities can help us
discover those places to begin so that we are better able to
support.
