On Tuesday, Jan. 28, and concluding on Tuesday, March 24, you are invited to attend two panels entitled Life Cycle Rituals. The first panel (in January) will explore cultural and religious rituals surrounding birth, coming of age, and marriage. The second panel (in March) will offer explanations of rituals surrounding death and beliefs about the afterlife.

Panelists include Minister Carolina Uribe from St. Mary’s Church in Chandler (primarily a Hispanic congregation); Ms. Azra Hassain of the Islamic Speakers Bureau and Dr. M. Zuhdi Jasser, President of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy; Pastor Mitch McDonald, newly-installed at Sun Lakes Community Church (representing traditional Christian views); and Rabbi Irwin Wiener of the Sun Lakes Jewish Congregation.

Both parts of this program will take place at the Sun Lakes Chapel. The programs are free and open to the public, though donations at the door will be gratefully accepted to benefit the Sun Lakes Chapel Board. Please save the dates and come and learn from all these amazing speakers.

Part I will be held on Tuesday, Jan. 28, and Part II will be held on Tuesday, March 24, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. at the Sun Lakes Chapel.
