adult RE: death and dying
This adult RE course was be led by Michaela von Britzke and Sarah Tinker.
18th September 2008
We will start with a gentle evening of conversation, in pairs, small groups and the whole group, about our experiences of death, our hopes and fears, the aspects of death we want to explore or have more information about.
2nd October 2008
In this second evening we will consider our legacies, what it is we bring to the world and leave here when we are no more. How can 'clearing the decks' and sorting our affairs help us to face death in peace and live life more fully now?
16th October 2008
This evening we will explore the ending of life and useful preparations and decisions we can make. Living wills, care preferences, favourite readings, and hymns we never want to have sung at our funeral - just some of the issues we will explore together.
In each of these three evenings we will end with a process called 'Live Now', which encourages us to consider what we want to do with our lives now, whether we think we may have hours or decades to live.
Look out in the new year for a Saturday workshop about death and dying here at Essex Church.
