About this Event

Horizons of Hope is a four-part program to:

• Empower and educate parishioners by addressing questions about suffering, accompaniment, palliative care, death, and bereavement.
• Explore how palliative care is understood from the perspective of Catholic moral and pastoral theology.
• Facilitate meaningful conversations to help our families and parish become compassionate communities, grounded in the mercy and tenderness of the living Christ.
• The four sessions of the program will be held in the church hall on:
  • Saturday, Sept. 14, 10 a.m. to noon
  • Sunday, Sept. 22, 2:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
  • Sunday, Sept. 29, 2:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
  • Saturday, Oct. 5, 10 a.m. to noon
• Each session includes videos related to the topic, one from a medical perspective and one from a theological perspective; a small-table conversation follows each video.
