Upcoming MNDC Events |
Currently, our monthly meetings are held virtually by ZOOM until further notice.
Once we get back to meeting in person, we will be gathering at Hennepin Avenue United Methodist Church on the 2nd Wednesday of each month, 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm CST. The address is 511 Groveland Avenue, Minneapolis. There is plenty of free parking. Every month will feature a local speaker or special interest topic or have a Death Doula case study discussion about end of life doula work. Monthly meetings are just one of the benefits to membership. However, if you aren't a 'joiner' or just want to check us out before committing to a long-term (year-long) relationship, monthly meetings are $10 to attend. This change is effective as of our January 2020 gathering. Learn more information about membership here. |
2022 Upcoming Monthly MNDC Events
Currently, our monthly meetings are held virtually by ZOOM until further notice. 7:00-8:30 CST
September 14, 2022 - Ambiguous Losses and Resiliency During Troubling Times with Ted Brown
Zoom 7:00-8:30PM CST
Clarity, plans, and continuity are often desired and welcomed. Uncertainty about
and interruptions to anticipated future stories, on the other hand, can evoke anxiety
and incompetence. Personal losses also occur at intersections with collective
disruptions, adding to distress and greater ambiguity.
Increased comfort with ambiguity can enrich lives and care of self and
others. Resiliency promotion for troubling times will be emphasized.
Speaker: Ted Bowman is a grief educator and consultant. He specializes in change and transition. For over 40 years, he has been a frequent trainer, consultant, and speaker with many groups throughout Minnesota, the United States, and other countries. Ted was an adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota (Family Education) 1981-2012; at the University of Saint Thomas (Social Work) 2006 until 2019; and 1989 to 1996 at United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities. His newest book, Ambiguous Parables: Poem and Prose of Loss and Renewal, was published in November 2021.
There is a $10 fee for non-members to attend our virtual ZOOM meetings.
It's an honor system, please CLICK HERE to SUBMIT PAYMENT to PayPal before attending. Thank you.
