Ageing and Spirituality Workshops

Thursday 10 and 17 March 2011, 2-5pm

Sister Maryanne Confoy will lead two workshops on 'Ageing and Spirituality' at Church of All Nations, Carlton.

Why should you attend?

We learn from primary, secondary and tertiary education to prepare ourselves for work.

With continuing education we ensure that our work skills remain relevant for our time of work in the workplace.

We prepare ourselves for retirement by careful financial planning.

We should also prepare ourselves for our retirement years by understanding how ageing impacts on us and how we can make the best of those years.

Workshop Outlines

The afternoon Workshop on Thursday 10 March with Sr Maryanne Confoy will explore the physical and psychological themes about ageing and address concerns you may have.

In the afternoon Workshop on Thursday 17 March Sr Maryanne Confoy will explore the spirituality issues associated with ageing.
