Rites to ACCOMPANY The Christian community accompanies people through providing a ritual framework These Rites are acts of public worship Three elements are involved in this accompaniment God is praised The Resurrection of Jesus is proclaimed Conveying the hope of being gathered together again in God’s kingdom Prayers are offered For the soul of the deceased person Their body is honoured The bereaved are consoled

The primary purpose of the Rites Enrichment: of those bereaved and the community Creating space: to express grief Celebrating: the life and memory of the person

Initial steps and stages Initial Contact Communication Prayer resources Gathering in the presence of the body Removal to the Church

Support in making choices Enable the bereaved family Help them to become aware of the liturgical possibilities To discern what is the most appropriate OCF 7: Involve the family - 3 options: choice of texts and rites, selection of music, designation of liturgical ministers The Funeral Mass Funeral Service Introductory Rites Liturgy of the Word Liturgy of the Eucharist Final Commendation Priest presides May be led by a priest, deacon, PPW or other trained lay person

The Role of the Funeral Director Assist the bereaved after the moment of death until after the burial or cremation Twofold role: Care of the body of the deceased Care of the family of the deceased BY co-ordinating funeral arrangements Some things to keep in mind: Changes in society, availability of ministers, family living abroad, etc. These will influence funeral arrangements Funeral Directors are strongly encouraged to advise the family to discuss possibilities with the Priest and Funeral Ministry Team

Words of Appreciation BASIC GUIDELINES First, this is not an obligatory aspect Families should feel free not to have one Keep it brief No more than five minutes Written down Delivered by one person Mention only tribute to the deceased and thanks for those who have helped or supported the family APPROPRIATE TIMES for this: At the Reception of the Body At the conclusion of the Funeral Mass At the Crematorium or Graveside Not part of the Rite But a local CUSTOM Key guidelines 1. Sensitivity 2. Uplifting and Charitable 3. A spirit of appreciation It is essential that the family are given guidelines for this

REFLECT and CHAT 1. How do people find out about arranging a Funeral in the parish if they have a bereavement? 2. What would initial steps and stages of support look like in your parish context?
