Memento Mori

Fr. Jacob and Fr. Sean discussed the concept of memento mori, or remembering one's death, in a recent episode of the Catholic Stuff You Should Know podcast.

The discussion addressed the spiritual work of mercy involving prayers for the dead and the theology of purgatory. The topic comes as the liturgical year approaches All Saints and All Souls days and the month of November, a time when the Church intentionally prays for the faithful departed.
