WRITING THE STORY OF OUR LIVES

The Catholic Grandparents Association of Saint John XX111 Parish in Dartmouth is reoffering Guided Autobiography, a guided writing course based on Dr. James E. Birren's 25 years of autobiographical writing experience in small group settings that was presented to two groups last year in St. John XX111.

The course is 8 weeks long , one 2.5 hour lesson/practicum each week. Your Instructor is Linda MacDonald, retired professor from St. Mary's University and trained in the Birren method at University of Southern California.  (Google: Guided Autobiography: Writing and Telling stories of Lives JE Birren)

A suggested offering for the 8 week course, including lesson materials and background information is $ 38.00 per person.

The course helps us to recall and write our life story, to explore major themes in our lives like work, home, relationships, faith, death and much more. Participants in this course will have a personal , professionally designed summary of your live and faith which makes an excellent gift to pass on to families ...your legacy .

We plan to begin this course on April 11 th. but this may change to meet special requirements .
