...exhibit of Genesis scenes, while a nearby cancer center is using the series to foster communication between patients and their families. Between them, Women of Reform Judaism and United Methodist Women have sent out thousands of study guides on how to replicate the television discussion. In Kansas City, Missouri, Shepherd's Centers of America, serving older adults in 26 states, is scheduling discussion groups with a target population of 1 million.
