A gathering for shared discussion and reflection, grounded in our real life experiences, and guided by scripture, poetry, and spiritual writings. We will discuss what is different in this season of life and engage with the transformations of growing older.
During the four-week series, we will explore:
How do we age well and fruitfully; live this season with gratitude, finding what is good amidst the challenges; make a gracious place for grief; and “walk home” to the end of life with grace?
Week One, Growing Older:
Introduction to the Challenges and Graces of Aging
Week Two, Aging Well:
Finding unexpected fruitfulness amidst the realities of change and loss
Week Three, Grieving Loss:
In both past and anticipated loss, moving towards wholeness through sorrow
Week Four, Walking Home:
How we walk “home” during this time of transition, experiencing a sense of the eternity we walk towards
