SUMMARY:My Octopus Teacher
DESCRIPTION:The Academy-award winning film My Octopus Teacher to be featured May 9 via ZoomThe winner of Best Documentary Feature at 2021’s Academy Awards “My Octopus Teacher\,” will be May’s free FFE Eco-Series event. A special viewing and discussion of the film will take place on Tuesday\, May 9\, 2023\, at 6:30 in the evening Central\, online via Zoom. This film was the feel-good choice as it portrayed the filmmaker forging an unusual friendship with an octopus living in a South African kelp forest. We learn along with him as a young octopus displays remarkable curiosity and shares the mysteries of her world. Visiting her den and tracking her movements for months on end\, he eventually wins the animal’s trust and they develop this never before seen bond between human and wild animal. Reflecting on her lessons changes his life for the better. Join us for this true story of Craig Foster and his underwater friend\, directed by Pippa Erlich and James Reed.Franciscans For Earth is sponsored by the Franciscan Sisters of Our Lady of Perpetual Help. Their free\, monthly\, Eco-Film & Speaker Series was created to educate\, advocate and collaborate on behalf of Our Common Home and all of its inhabitants. \n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Nourish Your Soul: A Retreat for Caregivers & Those Working in Healthcare at Prairiewoods
DESCRIPTION:While healthcare systems\, structures and technologies are evolving frantically\, the people delivering care in hospitals\, clinics\, nursing homes and other settings remain the bedrock of healthcare. Many of these caregivers are depleted and running on empty. There is no more to give. During this overnight retreat at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha)\, Leslie Schwarting will guide us to honor the journey of caregiving and explore spiritual and psychological practices for caregivers to find restoration. Research reflects that three core domains can restore and support individuals when integrated. In this retreat\, we will explore these domains from a spiritual perspective: Coping and Control\, Sense of Purpose and Human Connection. Join other caregivers for a retreat to nourish your soul. The cost of this overnight retreat is $200 and includes sessions\, Friday night lodging\, and Saturday breakfast and lunch. The commuter fee is $150 and includes sessions and Saturday lunch. For more information or to register\, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700. \n\n\n\n\nRegister
