About this Event

Life Celebrants International TM trains celebrants to assist families with developing meaningful life celebrations, funeral services and memorial services that are reflective of the life of the deceased and appropriate and meaningful to their life circumstances. This workshop will help participants better understand the needs of grieving families and how to establish and nurture respectful relationships with them. They will learn various ways of providing gentle and compassionate guidance to families planning life celebrations and how to assemble and organize that perfect ceremony. There will be opportunities to practice public speaking, with coaching, to boost confidence before that first ceremony.
