Navigating Life's Final Journey: Conversations
With Patricia O'Connor
July 9, 2025
Join us for a Day of Recollection, dedicated to preparing spiritually and emotionally for life’s final journey. This day is designed to help you navigate the mysteries of aging, illness, and the transition from this life with faith and trust in God’s love. Through guided reflections, quiet prayer, and shared discussions, we will explore themes of surrender, gratitude, forgiveness, and the hope of eternal life. Our time together will offer comfort and courage, helping you or those you love find peace in the face of mortality. Whether you are preparing for your own journey or accompanying others, this day will provide strength, clarity, and spiritual support.
We invite you to join us for Holy Mass in the Chapel at 9 AM. Check in will begin at 9:45. Coffee, tea and pastries will be available. Included in this day is a hot lunch. This will be served at 12:30 in the dining hall of the Enders House, an early 20th century arts and crafts style mansion and the oldest structure on the island.
