If, then, we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him. (Romans 6:8)
Por tanto, si hemos muerto con Cristo, creemos que también viviremos con él.(Romanos 6: 8)
Funerals give us the opportunity to grieve and show others support during difficult times. Through our prayers and actions during these times we show our respect for life, which is always a gift from God, and comfort to those who mourn
Send a card to someone who has recently lost a loved one.
Visit the cemetery and pray for those you have lost.
Spend time planning your own funeral mass, read through the Order of Christian Funerals and find our hope in the Resurrection.
"The Church earnestly recommends that the pious custom of burying the bodies of the deceased be observed; nevertheless, the Church does not prohibit cremation unless it was chosen for reasons contrary to Christian doctrine" (canon 1176.3).

Funerales nos dan la oportunidad de llorar y mostrar los otros apoyan en los momentos difíciles. A través de nuestras oraciones y acciones durante estos tiempos mostramos nuestro respeto a la vida, que es siempre un don de Dios, y consuelo a los que lloran.

enterrar los cuerpos de los fallecidos, sin embargo, la Iglesia no prohíbe la
cremación, a menos que se eligió por razones contrarias a la doctrina cristiana"
