The congregation is invited to a presentation given by Karen and Larry Mulder entitled, “What We Learned about Care Giving in the House of the Dying.” Karen and Larry will reflect on what they learned in the House of the Dying during their time spent in Haiti. They had seen and experienced many things, but nothing could have prepared them for the darkness, sadness, and challenges they would face upon entering rooms full of dying women and men. From this humbling and sacred experience they learned (or relearned) some powerful and simple truths about caring for those who are suffering.
The presentation will take place on Monday, October 21 at 7 p.m. in the Commons, and is sponsored by Congregational Care and the Health Ministry.
