January 4th Workshop at Thoreau UU Congregation
It takes courage to enter into stories about dying. On Sunday, January 4th, Thoreau will host a workshop by Liza Ely on the subject of her recent book Conscious Acts of Grace - A Collection of End-of-Life Stories. In this workshop session, you are invited to proceed gently with an open heart, knowing you are a pioneer in bringing life into death. With an opportunity to share with others and to experience peace and support, the following topics are explored: Listening, Support, Dignity, Faith, Letting Go, Forgiveness, and then some. The workshop will be from 1-4 PM following the 11:15 AM Sunday worship service, at which Liza will offer a sermon on this topic. For further information and to sign-up for the workshop contact Joe Sullivan @ 281-342-8133 or jesull96@aol.com, and find directions to Thoreau at http://www.tuuc.org .
