SUMMARY:Catholics in Healthcare: Extraordinary Lives\, Extraordinary Saints
DESCRIPTION:Conference Report\nby a young medical student \nIt was a real blessing to attend the recent CMA youth conference for Catholics in healthcare entitled ‘Catholics in Healthcare: Extraordinary Lives\, Extraordinary Saints’. Having had a quick glance at the programme before arriving\, I had imagined that the conference would entail a series of talks\, each portraying an individual’s compassionate commitment to the care of others whilst perhaps also providing information on how best to navigate certain tricky ethical situations as Catholics. The speakers were not\, however\, simply inspirational professionals who happened to be practicing Catholics and had plenty of practical advice to offer\, rather\, they were individuals who were actively putting God at the centre of their lives and responding to their personal call to love Him by serving the infirm. \nDr Swee Ang spoke about seeing the face of Christ in the faces of children whilst working in war-torn territories\, and a young nurse encouraged us to re-evaluate the job (or even vocation) of a nurse given it’s contemporary roots in the order of the Daughters of Charity. Later in the afternoon\, Mary Doogan\, a midwife\, explained that she would always pray before ever setting foot in the labour ward. The Mother Superior of the Little Sisters of the Poor spoke beautifully about the lives of the sisters working in care homes\, their days rooted in prayer and dedicated to showing love to the elderly they serve. All these testimonies highlighted to me how vital it is for all of us to be open to God’s calling us in unexpected directions throughout our lives. It is extremely easy to fall into the trap of planning out one’s career in detail or at least of ruling out certain paths which don’t seem to fit into our fixed vision of our futures. \nAs young healthcare professionals\, we left the conference with renewed energy and wonderful friendships\, but perhaps most importantly\, with the determination to keep God at the heart of our work. St Vincent de Paul is reported to have said: “Do not limit your vision any longer to yourself\, but see the Lord around you and in you\, ready to put his hand to the work as soon as you ask for His help. You will see that all will go well.” The speakers and religious present at the conference undoubtedly witnessed to the joy and freedom that comes from giving one’s work over to God. \n \nMary Doogan addressing the conference. \nWe are very grateful to the parish of St Aloysius’\, Euston\, and her parish priest for sponsoring our conference. \n \nAbove: the conference flyer we distributed prior to the event. \nAttendance: about 70.

SUMMARY:The Beginning of Life: The First Annual CMA Youth Conference
DESCRIPTION:Conference Report\nOver 70 people packed into Newman House\, London\, to listen to a range of varied and inspiring talks for the CMA’s first youth conference entitled ‘The Beginning of Life’. We heard an expose of Pope Saint John Paul II’s encyclical Evangelium Vitae\, reflections on the sacrament of marriage\, as well as the challenges and joys of being a midwife\, and the ethical intricacies encountered as a GP. \nWe were a truly multi-disciplinary bunch: in attendance were nurses\, doctors\, midwives\, physios\, pharmacists and students of all the above. \nAbove all\, we were blessed to share in the fellowship of other Catholic healthcare professionals\, enjoying some good food and meaningful conversation. \n \nTestimonials\n“…one of the most enjoyable things about this meeting for me was being able to meet other Catholic medical professionals\, particularly Catholic doctors who I could chat to and learn about their experiences so far.” \nI was reminded of “the importance of individuals working in healthcare staying true to their beliefs while at the same time being lawful\, respectful and compassionate to others.”  – A young nurse \nRegarding the talk by the young midwife: “[it] was especially moving. She had a fresh way of talking about pro-life issues and emphasised points gained through her personal experience that I hadn’t considered before.” – A young medical student
