Program Description
"The Sacred Dying Philosophy is concerned with bringing spirituality, through presence and ritual, into the physical act of dying. Sacred Dying facilitates the creation of a setting where death is experienced with honor, respect, and sacredness. This can be as simple as being present with a loved member of your family and as complicated as transforming the vision of our entire society.
It is a proven approach to providing spiritual aid to the dying and their loved ones."

The goal of the "Sacred Dying Foundation -Sacred Vigil Dying - No One Dies Alone Training" Program is to shift the paradigm of how society and Western culture views death and dying.
A health care organization, hospital, hospice, nursing home or religious congregation that wishes to be trained in the "Sacred Vigil Dying" Program must identify leaders to put through the program along with a number of volunteers.
Sacred Vigil Traning includes a keynote speaker, seminars, books, videos. Vigil Training takes place either in house at a health care organization.
