Life Review and Ethical
Wills – Spiritual
Care Basics
November 2010
This workshop helps people write their own
ethical Wills, wherein they can pass on their morals,
values, and
experiences to family and friends. These Wills consist
of whatever you think is important to pass on to
your family and friends after your death ~ some of our residents
wrote stories of events which had changed their
lives, some wrote messages about what they consider
to be the most important things in life, some just
wrote
to say how grateful they were for the people in their
lives. This is a very empowering experience.
Forgive For Good – Dr.
Fred Luskin
Dr. Luskin is a professor at Stanford who does a lecture series which teaches people how to forgive for their own good and get on with their lives. We are currently negotiating to have him give a one-and-a-half hour presentation at Sunny View; the date will be posted here when finalized.
Gospel Concerts
The Center for Aging & Spirituality is looking into having a series of gospel concerts at Sunny View, featuring performers from various denominations throughout Santa Clara County and neighboring areas. More information on this will be posted as we solidify our plans. Anyone with any information about gospel groups should feel free to contact Carolyn at the Center for Aging & Spirituality, 408-454-5625.
