GTA CATHOLIC RESTORES
Life in today's world can be very challenging, confusing and stressful especially when we experience things like broken relationships, losses, failed expectations, problems with
illness, addictions etc.
When life causes us to experience difficulties and hurts, our spirit is broken or damaged.
When this happens, our “broken spirit” can negatively affect our identity, personality,
unique gifts and talents.
This broken spirit creates spiritual stress/distress which can have poor effects on
our decision-making, relationships, behaviour, performances as well as our spiritual,
physical, mental and emotional health.
Our speaker for this session is Dr Kenneth Fung. He is a retired Family Physician 55+ years, Christian counsellor and psychotherapist for 38 years. He will speak about his work as a doctor and Christian therapist to help people heal their body mind and soul. His talk will focus on both the spiritual and medical perspective.
