On the Pastoral Care Page, you may sign up for this workshop.

Congratulations to our Pastoral Associate, Dr. Jim Helton! He recently completed his yearlong post-graduate studies in Catholic Clinical (Medical) Ethics at the Pellegrino Center for Biomedical Ethics at Georgetown University. Jim is continuing to work with them on ethical issues and he would like your participation. He is looking at end-of-life issues and he would like to hear from you if you or your family has had any nearing death experiences. These are events or behaviors that people have as they come closer to death such as seeing or talking to deceased loved ones, telling you they have accepted their death, and similar interactions. These are different from near-death experiences in which a person has technically died but been resuscitated. Jim would like you to call him, write him, or make an appointment with him to discuss your experiences.
