Dying with Christ, Living with Hope

Dying with Christ, Living with Hope

 

The Christian Medical and Dental Association – Canada (CMDA) continues to offer education and awareness in regards to MAiD and it’s negative impact on our healthcare system and healthcare workers.  To continue their efforts CMDA is designating May 18 as Dignity Sunday in Nova Scotia.  And invite people to take action.  CMDA shares it’s latest initiative:

The Christian Medical and Dental Association Canada will host a spring series of their Dying with Christ - Living with Hope session. This program presents a hope-filled perspective on a universal experience. Led by theologians and healthcare professionals, the series explores timeless insights into suffering, grief, dying, the duty to care, and how dying with Christ is attainable for everyone.

The Canadian Federation of Catholic Physicians’ Societies is encouraging Catholics to complete a survey on the expansion of Euthanasia/MAiD. The federal government is pushing to expand euthanasia (MAiD) to include advance requests, meaning a patient could be euthanized without providing consent at the time of the procedure. This raises serious ethical concerns, yet the government has quietly launched a national consultation on the issue.
