Pros and Cons of Webcasting a Funeral
A few months ago, I read the article More families choose to have funerals webcast from USA Today. I commend the article to you and wanted some pros and cons of this practice from my point of view.
Pros of Webcasting a Funeral
Physically distant friends and family are able to see and hear
Emotional closure for people unable to be present
Cons of Webcasting a Funeral
Enables people to not be present at this sacred time
Disconnects the experience from a physical community
We have webcast several funerals at Resurrection, particularly those that we are hosting that have a large community impact. What would you add to these lists?
