A Song of Death, Our Spiritual Birth: A Quaker Way of Dying
In 1992, Lucy McIver answered the call to follow a spiritual path and accompanied her spiritual mentor, Teresina Havens, during the final days of her death. Two years later she became spiritual companion to Joseph Havens in his dying. The deaths of these two Friends began a restless seeking within Lucy to understand how our Quaker faith shapes not only our living but our dying. Leaving the security of job and family she came to Pendle Hill in 1995-96 as a student to find answers through writing and artistic expression. This work led her to receive the Cadbury Scholarship for 1996-97 affording her the opportunity to examine the seventeenth-century Quakers' attitudes and experiences of death and dying. This pamphlet is one result of those two years.
