June 1, It’s Time to Talk… Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide – Catholic Health Association of Saskatchewan (CHAS) – It’s Time to Talk… Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide.  The Scriptures teach that life is a precious God-given gift.

Come deepen your understanding of the political situation in Canada, share your stories and questions, and learn more about how you can approach suffering with the compassion of Christ.  Presenter: Mary Deutscher, Ph.D.  The session will be held 7-9:00 pm on Wednesday, June 1 at Mont St. Joseph Home (777- 28 St East, Prince Albert). This session is free of charge. Refreshments will be provided. Sponsored by, and for more info, contact the Catholic Health Association of Saskatchewan at 306-655-5330 or visit www.chassk.ca.
