Have you ever noticed that death is mentioned in almost every Disney movie? A deceased parent, a hero’s tragic end, or a villain’s demise are just a few examples of what children are exposed to in Disney movies. 

Why is this? Does it help children work through their grief? What lessons can we learn from these Disney movies? 

This week, we welcome back Julia Ellifritt from Cornerstone of Hope to dissect the ever-evolving portrayal of loss in Disney's magical narratives, with a particular focus on the classic, Lion King.

In our latest episode of CCAirwaves,  we engage in a fascinating conversation with Joe Mulholland, a theology teacher at Saint Ignatius High School and the guiding force behind the Arimathea Pallbearer Ministry. This remarkable ministry is a testament to the power of service. With over 200 students willingly serving as pallbearers at local funerals, they provide a ray of hope and comfort in times of grief and loss. As the seventh corporal work of mercy, the act of burying the dead holds great significance, and Joe shares how this ministry has become an integral part of the school's culture. 

In a world where high school narratives often revolve around career goals and academic achievements, the Arimathea Pallbearer Ministry has managed to carve out its unique story.
