Dr. Matthew Hendzel, PhD<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Over two sessions, Deacon Matthew Hendzel, SJ, will discuss both the Catholic Church\u2019s teachings on the afterlife, and the history and theology behind these teachings. Following the Church\u2019s classic framework of the Four Last Things (Death, Judgment, Heaven and Hell) for understanding the afterlife, the first presentation will explore the topics of Death, Judgment and Hell on July 6th, and the second will explore Purgatory and Heaven on July 13th.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Deacon Matthew graduated with a PhD in Systematic Theology in 2019 from the University of St Michael\u2019s College. The topic of his thesis was on the doctrine of purgatory.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">All Are Welcome To Attend!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>~ Please note the auditorium is
