How do we deal with the reality of death?

At May's Progressive Christianity Forum, Rev Anne Butler will ask "How do we deal with the reality of death?"

What will happen to you as you approach the end of your earthly life – to your body, your memories, and your stuff? What about your legacy, whether to donate your organs, and the paperwork? Some of our Church members are comfortable and organised – but many are fearful – and those in the wider community do not have a safe place to discuss matters of Life and Death. Could a Coffin Club, or Death Café be a connecting point to those considering all aspects of their future? Anne will share her recent experiences on the South Coast.

Anne was born on the other side of the world, and came to live in Australia as part of the British migration. Church became her aunts and uncles, and grandparents, even though her parents did not attend. She began reading the Scriptures, originally following the strict Kosher rules laid out in Leviticus. Then she found the Gospels, and was inspired and wanted to be on the team of Jesus. From a call to ministry at 15, and ordination at 28, she has spent a life time wresting with the text, eager to find the Spirit’s meaning for today hidden among the ancient words.

*Please note that sales for live stream tickets will conclude 30 minutes prior to the event start time.
