Sunday April 27, Rev. Wendy McNiven - Living Well Until We Die.
American surgeon Atul Gawande has written an engaging book called “Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End”. It is, in part, an exploration of how people can be supported in prioritizing what really matters to us, in order to live as “successfully”, as fully as we can until the very end of our lives, even in the face of serious medical problems. Today’s service will explore some of the basic – and demanding – questions we might ask ourselves and each other, as mortal beings. There is no single “right” answer.

Rev. Wendy McNiven is a Unitarian minister, retired and living on Vancouver Island.  She has served congregations in BC and Alberta, and continues her ministry in retirement through leading rites of passage, counselling and coaching.  As a member of the Comox Valley community, she is involved in environmental activism, tai chi, and choral singing.  Wendy and her husband Mike are outdoor enthusiasts and grandparents.
