    Loop Synagogue Case Study

    The 1950’s marked the beginning of an evolution in Chicago architecture, which would be a dramatic contrast to the two previous decades. These earlier years were characterized by stunted architectural growth and reform, and the lack of advancement was largely due to the shortage of funding associated with the Great Depression and World War II. In the midst of this new era of development, architectural firms Loebl and Schlossman & Bennett were commissioned to reconstruct the Loop Synagogue in 1957 (Figure 1) after the original building was lost to a fire.

    Jehovah's Witnesses: A Case Study

An advance medical directive is a form of documentation that contains some earlier agreed upon terms (Gohel, Bulbulia, Slim, Poskitt & Whyman, 2005). The directives are crucial because they help legal and medical personnel to weigh some of the choices the Jehovah’s Witnesses make and why they are willing to take those risks in as far as medical treatment is concerned. The JWs advance directive prohibits them from blood transfusion. In many cases, these individuals have well executed health care advance directive that expressly shows their medical preferences that they are entitled to.…

    Reflection Of A Family Ministry

    Starting off this class with reading what Family Ministry is defined as opened up my view on how Family Ministry can be diverse in a variety of understanding.
