A Matter of Life and Death
Join us for this unique evening exploring important questions all adults need to answer in order to talk with their family, create their personal End-of-Life plan, and make their wishes known.
Our panel of experts will address a range of topics covering practical, medical, and theological issues. Examples include:
- What documents should I prepare and have stored?
- How do I make my End-of-Life preferences known?
- What is the difference between palliative and hospice care?
- What happens in the case of an unexpected death?
- How does our faith address issues faced during illness and dying?
- What does a funeral director do?
- How do funeral services differ for cremation and burial?
Doors open at 6p and program begins at 6:20p. A question and answer period will follow presentations by each panel member.
Refreshments will be served. Bring a friend or even better, bring a family member with you!
This event is sponsored by ACT II and is open to everyone, regardless of age.
