Our question today is: What happens after we die? We talk about heaven and hell, The Day of the Dead and skull faces.

We visit Ilia Delio's website for several juicy quotes. Here and here. And also this quote to chew on: "

"A person is a center of consciousness expressed in a particular matrix of matter, as if the entire universe (if indeed consciousness is the stuff of the universe) is compacted into this particular material form. In this respect, every person is the universe aware of itself (as Teilhard noted). To put this another way, there is no universe apart from the active centers of personal consciousness; each person is the universe come to self-consciousness."

Marci reads Mary Oliver's poem "When Death Comes."

Laura reads Teilhard de Chardin's poem, "Aging/Dying Prayer"

There are two different reading options for the second reading and the gospel.

The Sunday Readings

We explore the story of Jesus raising the widow's son as our gospel reading.
