364.0. "Christian house for dying brothers ?" by ANNECY::RENAUDEAU () Mon Jan 10 1994 06:20

	Do somebody know of a christian house for dying people in the 
Boston/Nashua area ? What I'm looking for is not a hospital, but rather a 
christian fraternity/community taking care of terminally-ill people not only 
on the medical/psychological levels but accompanying them as brothers/sisters
on the way to the eternal worship. Therefore a house who's Jesus is the sheperd
and employees are above all brothers to each other and the sicks, worshipping 
together our Savior, and preparing in faith, hope and love the day when sick 
brothers will enter the true Life with Him.

	I'll be in LKG next week, and I'd like to take the opportunity to 
visit (if possible) such  a house as it seems to me as if God is leading me 
this way.

	Thank you for your replies.

	Our life is for Him, and run towards the day we'll see Him. And we'll 
be like him ! (espitles of John). Praised be his Name !

    I'm so sorry that I've not ever heard of such a house... though the
    concept is rather provocative.  It appears as though no-one in this
    conference has heard of one either.  May God grant you guidance in your
    finding of said mission.
    
    In His Love,

    One place to start might be with hospice organizations.  For
    example, a friend's father received excellent assistance from a
    local hospice.  While this is not a community of which you seek,
    they might be closer to sourcing what it is you're looking for.

	Hello, Nancy. May I just ask you what you mean by saying that this 
concept is "rather provocative" ? I do not catch your thinking...

	Thanks to all who replied, whether here or in the Catholic conference.
I do appreciate. However I am amazed that nobody seems to have heard of such 
a Community. Hospitals of houses for old-people take care of dying as part
of their "work" and mostly at a personal level. But it is not exactly the same
as a Christian house devoted to accompanying terminally-ill persons to their
future Home prepared for them by Christ Himself. 

	Thanks again. May the Peace of Jesus always be with you.
