                      2. Cicely Saunders
                        1. Dame Cicely founded St Christopher's Hospice in 1967 as the first hospice linking expert pain and symptom control, compassionate care, teaching and clinical research. St Christopher's has been a pioneer in the field of palliative medicine, which is now established worldwide.
                          1. Her vision to establish her own home for the dying was underpinned by her religious faith. She had initially thought of creating an Anglican religious community but broadened her vision so that St Christopher's became a place that welcomed staff and patients of any faith or none. However, Cicely's strong Christian faith was a fundamental factor in her commitment to the dying and remained an anchor throughout her life.
                          2. Christian attitudes towards hospices
                            1. Christians are for hospices because they help ill people.
                              1. 'Jesus wanted to help the sick'
                                1. This means that Jesus wanted to help the ill, and so should all christains
                                2. Love you neighbour as you love youself
                                  1. This means that everyone should be treated equally and should be loved with agape love (unconditionally)
                                  2. Man was made in the image of god
                                    1. This means that God wanted everyone to have the same amount of compassion as himself, by helping the ill, you are helping god.
