The University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa‘s Counseling and Student Development Center, Campus Center Meetings & Events Services, and the UH Diversity and Equity Initiative Award present part III of the "UH Breaking Bread Together to Make a Difference Speakers Series" with an inspirational film screening of "Living Your Dying" and a question and answer session with the Rev. Mitsuo Aoki. The event will be held on Tuesday, February 3, from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the UH Mānoa Campus Center, Campus Center Ballroom B & C.

Aoki is a semi-retired theologian, minister, college professor, and founder of the University of Hawaiʻi‘s Department of Religion. For more than four decades, he has shown others how to experience death not merely as an end, but as a vital, inseparable part of life. The documentary, "Living Your Dying," explores his personal journey and the stories of four courageous individuals who faced the challenge of "living their dying."

The "UH Breaking Bread Together to Make a Difference Speakers Series" was established to provide opportunities for self-improvement and to create an atmosphere of positivism at the UH Mānoa campus and throughout the larger island community.

For more information about the event and to register, contact Dr. Michi Fu at (808) 956-7927. There is a registration fee of $12, which includes lunch, and $10 for current students with a valid ID.
