Reclaiming Redemptive Suffering

The Canadian Catholic Bioethics Institute invites the community to a free webinar:

RECLAIMING REDEMPTIVE SUFFERING – A SPIRITUAL APPROACH TO THE MEANING OF SUFFERING

Many of us have lost any sense of ‘meaning’ in suffering. Some want to avoid it at all costs, even choosing early death. Our Catholic faith talks about ‘redemptive’ suffering, but what does that mean? Erin Kinsella will discuss this through the lens of her experience of chronic illness and developing spirituality of suffering.

SPEAKER: Erin Kinsella, BSc., MTS

HOST: Dr. Moira McQueen
