The Gift of Time: Terminal Diagnosis and the Healing of Relationships
9:30 am - 4:30 pm
Location: Wilson Chapel
Contact: Jennifer Shaw, jshaw2@ants.edu
The 2010 J. Earl Thompson Pastoral Care Symposium at Andover Newton Theological School will explore the possibilities for healing that a terminal diagnosis can bring to relationships. Join faculty from Andover Newton Theological School and other experts in a day-long forum focusing on this rich but less examined aspect of terminal illness.
The day will begin with a viewing of The Gift of Time, a new 55-minute documentary that captures the varied perspectives and relationships that develop in one family over the years between the mother’s initial cancer diagnosis and her death following metastasis fifteen years later. A panel discussion and workshops will follow to explore some of the topics raised by the film in more depth, such as unresolved grief in the face of loss, nurturing and healing relationships through forgiveness, and addiction and abuse as barriers to healing relationships.
The forum promises learning and growth opportunities for professionals such as chaplains, medical professionals and social workers, for seminary students, and for people with terminal diagnoses and their family members.

Yuliana Leon Wiser (Mexico) presents: The Crime of Father Amaro, a huge box-office success and controversial in Mexico, tells the story of an idealistic young priest, Father Amaro, sent to begin work in a small, rural Mexican town. He’s assigned to help the beleaguered Father Benito (Sancho Gracia) build a new temple. Once he arrives, he meets the deeply religious and beautiful Amelia (Ana Claudia Talancon), who is young, sensual and so in love with God that she transfers her feelings to Father Amaro, who slowly reciprocates her affections before beginning a full-blooded affair.
