Oak Bay United Church would like to invite your congregants to attend a series of learning and discussion opportunities that aim to help us plan for our eventual death. Rev. Sarah Fanning will be hosting, with guest experts!

Attendees are invited to bring a bag lunch—we will provide coffee, tea, goodies, the space, and an expert from whom to learn!

Wednesday, Jan. 28 12-1:30 pm: hospice & palliative care, with a guest from Victoria Hospice

Wednesday, Feb. 25 12-1:30 pm: planning your funeral, with a guest from Dignity Memorial (light lunch provided by Dignity Memorial this date only)

Wednesday, Mar. 25 12-1:30 pm: wills, power of attorney, and legal matters, with guests Zach Burrill and associate, Family Lawyers

Wednesday, Apr. 29 12-1:30 pm: financial planning with guest Al Dubé (OBUC Treasurer), Wealth, Insurance and Tax Specialist

 Advance registration requested so that we have enough resources to share. Each event is stand-alone, so people may register for as many (or as few!) of them as they wish. There is no cost to attend, but we will gratefully be accepting donations.

The event will be held in our Chapel (enter via the Kitchen door, on the south-east corner of the building, near the back of the church parking lot, which can be accessed via Granite St.).
