From dust to dust, earth to earth—that is the traditional vision of our bodily destiny at death. But all too often our contemporary burial practices keep our bodies from returning to the earth. What if there were another way to care for the bodies of our loved ones? What if our bodies could be used to renew the earth rather than deplete it? Over eight weeks, moving from Lent into Easter, we'll be exploring these questions through readings, videos, and discussions. Our primary text will be Mallory McDuff's Our Last Best Act: Planning for the End of Our Lives to Protect the People and Places We Love. Questions? Email the Rev. Ragan Sutterfield: rsutterfield@christchurchlr.org.
