November is the month of prayer for the dearly departed, and recalling our own mortality. But do you know what exactly Catholics believe about what happens after death? Or why?
We all have very real questions about death. What happens when we die? What does Scripture teach about death? How do we prepare for the life to come?
Eternal Rest is a four-part film series and comprehensive website that examines death, the afterlife, and the powerful reality around the sacrament that ushers us into eternal life. Each 30-minute episode approaches the subject from a Catholic perspective, leading viewers from the origin of death to Jesus Christ’s final victory at the Cross and Resurrection.
Structure of our parish-wide consideration of this series:- Watch each week's video.
