Retiring Well Seminars: For Clergy Preparing to Retire

 

Using an excellent resource written by Dr. Wagstrom Halaas, family physician and spouse of a Lutheran minister, clergy preparing to retire (and their spouses, if applicable) are invited to reflect on the new life that awaits them. These seminars can be offered in three 2-hour sessions, or as a full day workshop. For clergy belonging to the Anglican Diocese of British Columbia, these seminars are sponsored by the diocese, and thus there is no fee for this program.
