Archbishop Murphy delivered this homily at a Memorial Day Mass at Holyrood Catholic Cemetery in Seattle, WA. The main theme was God’s will to conquer death through the incredible gift of His Son Jesus Christ. He described the challenge for all disciples of Christ to believe in this fundamental tenet of our faith. “As disciples of Jesus, we know that death is not the end of life, but only the beginning,” said Archbishop Murphy. “We are born to die, but we die in order that we might live forever.”
