Sunday, March 30th, 2014.
Bagels @ 9:45 am, talk 10:15 – 11:45 am
How do we accompany our friends, family and fellow congregants in difficult moments, such as serious/terminal illness or end-of-life? How do we care for ourselves as we seek to care for those we love?
Chaplain Lisa Irish, MEd, MA, BCC and Chaplain N. Sarah Blum, MS, DMINc, NAJC, both from Yale-New Haven Hospital, St Raphael campus will present a point of view that responds to these questions. Their presentation will be followed by volunteer TE members Rise Siegel, Ed Cantor, Steve RIvkin and Sandra Boltax Stern sharing their personal experience in coping with death and dying. Chaplains Sarah and Lisa will then facilitate a discussion on this topic that touches all of us in some way.
This program is part of TE Adult Education Series, free and open to all.
