The Ao 3º Dia group holds a meeting on living positively with illness in Braga

The Ao 3º Dia group is holding a meeting titled "Living Positively with Illness" from 18h00 to 20h00 today at the São José de São Lázaro parish church in Braga. The gathering is open to people living with serious or chronic illnesses and those who care for them.

According to a note sent to Agência Ecclesia, the group meets monthly at this parish to help Christians facing serious or chronic illness find meaning and acceptance through faith. The meetings also include formal and informal caregivers, as the group recognizes that those accompanying the sick participate deeply in the experience of illness.

The group intends to help the Church and society address taboos regarding illness, suffering, pain, and death by approaching these realities with openness and proximity.
