At the end of our lives, what do we most wish for? For many, it’s simply comfort, respect, love. On November 10, as we celebrate All Souls’ Day at our Choral Eucharist service, please don’t miss the opportunity to hear also from renowned hospice and palliative care specialist, public speaker, and connector BJ Miller.

On this day of prayer and remembrance for those we love and see no longer, who better to hear from than this deep thinker about how to create a dignified, graceful end of life.

Miller is the co-author with Shoshana Berger of the book A Beginner’s Guide to the End: Practical Advice for Living Life and Facing Death; the executive director of San Francisco’s Zen Hospice Project from 2011 to 2016; and the founder of the Center for Dying and Living, a web site designed for people to share their own stories related to living with illness, disability, and loss or caring for those who are.
