We need to talk about death and dying
This workshop is designed specifically for clergy and people in authorised ministries.
The workshop will offer support and tools to enhance confidence in having pastoral conversations about death and dying. Using a model from the field of bereavement to explore emotional, psychological and spiritual responses and building on the experiences of the participants, the day will resource those who attend to go deeper in their pastoral encounters with people who are actively addressing their own mortality.
The programme assumes a degree of personal sharing and therefore participation is restricted to clergy and others in authorised ministries within churches.
Note that this event clashes with the Anna Chaplaincy Network Gathering (13–14 October 2021), which is for network members only.
