About the facilitator: Â The Rev'd Jennifer Creswell has been an Episcopal priest for 19 years and is currently the Vicar of St Andrew's in North Portland. She is also a healthcare chaplain serving palliative care patients and their families. Having become familiar with that strange companion, grief, in her twenties, Jennifer has been at the bedside as hundreds of people have taken their last breaths. Her reverence for life's transitions led her to train as a postpartum doula and an end-of-life doula. People are Jennifer's favorite thing.
