This talk explores the veneration by Medieval Christians of ‘Saint’ Guinefort, a greyhound said to have lived a heroic life in 13th-century France. While the Church does not formally name dogs as saints – then or now – this case raises some interesting questions about sanctity and also the relationship of Christians with animals, particularly dogs, as well as lived experiences of the natural world by our Christian forebearers.

Grief takes many forms. Contemporary therapeutic approaches often emphasize that there is no right way to grieve: each person's loss is unique. But does the Catholic tradition have more to say about how we should live with loss? Drawing on interviews with grief counselors and chaplains alongside St. Augustine and the Catholic intellectual tradition, this talk will explore what grief reveals about love and its right ordering.
