Sunday May 24th – Join us for a joyful gathering. Topic: The Final Border - TEDxBerlin @ Friendship Hall

Speaker: Dr. Peter Fenwick (video homily)

Dr. Fenwick provides both an account of his research into Near-Death Experiences and a practical discussion of “what do we really know about dying,” the circumstances around near-death experiences, and how consciousness changes when the heart stops. He also relates, very practically, how to prepare for death. Fenwick provides much hope for death being a good experience. Statistically, from accounts of near-death experiences, it will likely be your mother you see at the moment of death.

Bio: Neuropsychologist Dr. Fenwick was born in Nairobi in 1935 and died in London, England, in 2024. He was a senior lecturer at King’s College London, where he worked as a consultant in the Institute of Psychiatry. Fenwick was the President of the Horizon Research Foundation, an organization that supports research into end-of-life experiences. And he was President of the British Branch of the International Association for Near-Death Experiences.

Forum: Forum will be held, this service was at the request of members to be given the opportunity to speak about shifting attitudes towards aging and end of life.
