This three-part series will focus on how Beth Emet approaches death and mourning. How do we prepare to die? What responsibilities do we have to someone who is dying? How can we support those who are in mourning? Sessions will feature both resources and discussion. No previous knowledge is required.
Registration can be for a single session or all three.
