Homecoming Conference 2024: Celebrating Life, Planning for Death

November 16, 9:00 am – 1:00 pm

$15 Registration

End of Life planning can be daunting, particularly if it isn’t taken care of before the end of life!

Join us at St. Antony’s Episcopal Church in Silverdale to hear from attorney Bryan Wichert, Funeral Director Tim Dinan, Church Musician Chris Eisenberg, and Kitsap County Episcopal Clergy for a half-day workshop that touch on all aspects of end of life planning. Topics will include financial and legal concerns, medical wishes, funeral home logistics, and liturgical resources for creating your own funeral service.

Discussions of wills, hospice/palliative care, post-mortem care logistics, and funerals will provide you with good advice, great resources, and plenty of time for questions and answers.

When: Saturday, November 16, from 9 am to 1 pm.

Where: St. Antony of Egypt Episcopal Church

Check-in and coffee start at 8:45 am. Program begins at 9:15 am.

We will celebrate Eucharist following the presentations and closes with lunch, included with $15 registration fee.
