This interactive four-session course will discuss perspectives on real-life bioethical and ethical issues. These challenges often arise in life, and our faithful have often not considered and are not prepared to address them.

We will discuss these topics from the Armenian Church’s faith and teachings, and from a greater bioethics perspective. This course will be co-led by our Pastor Fr. Arakel Aljalian and Yn. Natasha Aljalian (M.Bioethics, J.D., LL.M. and currently a Fellow at the Harvard Medical School Center for Bioethics).

The course will be held on Mondays in March at 7pm in the St. James Parish Council Room.
