COVID-19 is shining a light on our assumptions about the elderly among us. The pandemic has exposed cracks in our systems of care, revealing how we value the presence of older adults in our communities. In this experience, light is being shed on our understandings of aging, family, and community. We are led to wonder...
- How might we listen anew to the voice and resilience of older adults? How could such listening reshape our imagination and understanding?
- What insights do Indigenous communities offer about the valuing of elders?
- Can we learn to care for older adults and ourselves in ways that open fuller, life-giving possibilities?
- To what vision of reciprocal elder-care are our communities and churches being called?
CMU's Face2Face events are a series of conversations with CMU faculty and special guests designed to engage the community on a wide variety of current events and issues at the intersection of faith and life.
