Please RSVP and let us know what you plan to bring so that we can plan accordingly.
7:00 pm Coping with Climate Grief: A Christian Perspective
Dr. Carmen Hust and Dr. Nancy Brookes will lead an interactive exploration of our climate grief and how our Christian faith can move us from denial or despair to claiming our agency as a means to live in harmony with all God’s creation. Carmen is a retired professor of nursing and Nancy is a retired psychiatric nurse. Both involved with CANE- Canadian Nurses for the Environment.
