Hello, this is pastor gary from first baptist church of laplata. Continuing with yesterdays space theme: did you know there is a company called United Space Alliance that will send your cremated remains into space? Their first launch will be later this year from Cape Canaveral, FL, and will carry the remains of gene Roddenberry, James Doohan, and Nichelle Nichols among others. Who were these people? They were the creator, chief engineer Scotty, and communications officer Uhura of the Star Trek TV series and movies. Named “Enterprise Flight,” the Celestis voyager spacecraft will travel 250 million miles into deep space taking the human remains where no man has gone before. If you would like to have your remains blasted off into space, you can for the astronomical price tag of $125,000. We humans pay a lot of attention to our bodies—both living and dead; however, we don’t pay as much attention to our eternal souls. Our current bodies are for this life only, but our souls will last forever. While we are not to neglect our temporary bodies—living or dead— we must remain focused on that which lasts forever. Before your body becomes remains, make sure u have settled this critical question: Where will you spend eternity?
