Michaela Ebert

The St. Thomas Aquinas Guild of the Quad Cities invites all interested persons to a Zoom presentation “Christmas in the Age of Covid” at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 19.

The featured speaker will be Michaela R. Ebert, an ethicist for Ascension, a Catholic health system headquartered in St. Louis. In a year marked by the sorrows and fears of the COVID-19 crisis, Ebert will explore how we can receive the Christmas message of peace and joy and bring the good news of Jesus’ birth to others.

Her presentation will include a walk through the Nativity in search of lessons to help us find ourselves in the story of Christ’s birth.

Ebert studied theology at the University of Notre Dame, holds a law degree and master’s of public health from the University of Iowa, and a master’s in theology from the Aquinas Institute.

The St. Thomas Aquinas Guild of the Quad Cities is a chartered guild of the Catholic Medical Association. While many presentations are geared to the medical community, the Dec. 19 webinar will have general interest.
