A Quaker and a Buddhist talk about end of life and death, alongside their faith's "take" on death, followed by a Q&A.
About this Event

A Quaker and a Buddhist talk about end of life and death, about their faith's "take" on death. Q and A session and discussion. 

Two Quakers (one who is also a Buddhist – yes, that is possible) will talk about their personal perspectives on life and death. There will be plenty of opportunity for question and answers, and the chance for participants to share their own thoughts about these matters. The meeting will be held in a gentle, supportive, and inclusive way. 
Facilitated by: Shad Woolgrove, Buddhist Quaker & Laura Kerr, Quaker.
