II. The Celebration of Funerals
1686
The
Order of Christian Funerals (Ordo exsequiarum) of the Roman liturgy gives three
types of funeral celebrations, corresponding to the three places in which they
are conducted (the home, the church, and the cemetery), and according to the
importance attached to them by the family, local customs, the culture, and
popular piety. This order of celebration is common to all the liturgical
traditions and comprises four principal elements:
- SECTION TWO THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS OF THE CHURCH
- CHAPTER FOUR OTHER LITURGICAL CELEBRATIONS
- Article 2 CHRISTIAN FUNERALS
- II. The Celebration of Funerals
- Article 2 CHRISTIAN FUNERALS
- CHAPTER FOUR OTHER LITURGICAL CELEBRATIONS
