Description

It is not uncommon that members within a family have different ideas of how they want to mark or celebrate life’s defining moments. In some families the differences can be even greater if partners come from different faiths, traditions and cultures.

This seminar will invite you to reflect on and address the concerns faced in such situations, and share in the experiences of theologians and members of The Church of Norway. Speakers include Fredrik Saxegaard, Anne Grete Spæren Rørvik, Hallvard Beck, Shanthikumar Hettiarachchi, Dag Kaspersen, Johannes Vu Hung and others. The talks will be conducted mainly in Norwegian, although there are some English speakers.
