| | | | | Q. | Where can the basic understanding and theology of Catholic funerals be found? | | | | | A. |
The Order of Christian Funerals, published in 1989, contains a clear theology of the attitude of the Catholic Church toward life after death and thus the respect the Church has for the human person, body and soul. An appendix to this ritual on cremation was published in 1997. The use of both is mandated in the United States.
