"The Learning Catholic" Series: Catholic Funerals 101 - Part 1

Catholic Funerals 101 - Part 1, by Fr. Kenneth Metz. All Souls Catholic Parish, Sanford, FL Fr. Kenneth Metz treats his listeners to deep talks about their beautiful faith, from which so much can be learned that is fascinating and eye-opening about Catholicism. Fr. Ken weaves together historical facts, Biblical writings, current thinking, colorful personalities, and individual stories to bring to light how our past informs our future. Father Ken begins by sharing a little of the history of All Souls Cemetery, in Sanford, Florida, and introduces us to some of the specific terminology used for burials. Then Father Ken begins an in depth look at the Catholic perspective on burial practices and life after death. For example did you know that the Hebrew word for "human" is really translated as "breathing clay"? Did you also happen to know that today, in Orange and Seminole Counties, between 60-70% of burials are of cremated remains? Although cremation was once forbidden tor Catholics, the possibility of it was restored in the spirit of the second Vatican Council. Nevertheless, the cremated remains of a body must be treated with the same respect given to the human body from which they come.
