End of Life Planning Retreat - January 10-11, 2020

​Feeling like you’d rather not talk about death and dying? 
Thinking you really aren’t old enough to be dealing with the topic?
Maybe you have wondered about it at the funeral of a loved one.  And, perhaps you have hoped for a safe space to consider your end of life desires. You are invited to join us for a time of worship, conversations, planning and wrestling a bit with the topics surrounding our final chapter of life and how to enter into that chapter in a more intentional way.

Retreat Guide

​Ron Holloman, H.R., married to Wanda, father to four, grandfather to four and embarking on another new stage of life called the “latter years”; perhaps the best years. Come join us in preparing for “the evening of a well-spent life, brings its lamps with it” (Joubert). 

For many of us, the “latter years” which end in death is a sensitive topic, however, when one embraces aging as a “gift” (Joan Chittister) then renewed joy claims the moments.
