What Should
a Catholic
Know about
Cremation?
The Catholic Church permits cremation. For a number of reasons, the church prefers the burial of the
body, but it does permit the celebration of a funeral with cremated remains.
Among the reasons in favor of burial of the body are
these:
·
Seeing the body confronts people with the mystery of
life and death.
·
The body naturally recalls stories of faith, family
and friend-ship, the words a person spoke, the deeds a
person performed.
·
Although we have virtual electronic friendships,
people best encounter another person through the body.
·
The body experienced the sacraments – being washed
in baptism and anointed in confirmation, and by eating and drinking the body
and blood of Christ in communion.
·
The body is destined for the glory of the
resurrection.
·
The final care of the body demonstrates dignity for
the whole person.
·
Burial imitates the burial of Jesus body, and thus
constitutes another layer of discipleship.
If a Catholic chooses cremation, the church prefers
that the final disposition of the remains be in a public place, such as a
cemetery.
Many
survivors make other arrangements: they retain the ashes at home, divide them
among family members, or scatter them to the elements. The Catholic Church
disapproves of these practices.
According to the Vatican’s Congregation for the
Doctrine of the Faith, the conservation of ashes in one’s home is not
permitted, nor may they be scattered in the air, on land or at sea. Ashes may
not be preserved in mementoes such as jewelry (Ad resurgendum
cum Christo).
The careful placement of ashes honors the remains of
the deceased in the same way that burial of the body does. Furthermore, it
gives a permanent place where future generations may visit to remember, and
where the person’s name can be honorably etched.
Some
crematoriums have a place where the family may gather during the process. If a
family desires to be together, they may spend the time offering suitable
prayers of thanksgiving and hope, such as Psalms 23, 25, 42, 51, 93, 114 and
115:1-12, 116, 118, 119, 121, 122, 123, 126, 130, 132 or 134.
There
are three possibilities for the sequence of events. Here they are in order of
preference:
1. The body
of the deceased is present for the vigil service and the funeral Mass, and
cremation happens before the committal at the cemetery. In this case, the body
may be placed first in a ceremonial coffin that will be interred, and the
removed from it for the cremation.
2. The
cremation and committal take place before the funeral Mass. In this case, the
cremated remains are interred in a cemetery or mausoleum, and then the mourners
gather for the Eucharist.
3. The
cremation takes place before any of the funeral rites begin, and the cremated
remains are present for the vigil, the Mass, and the committal.
Whenever
the ashes are presented in public for the funeral services, they should be treated
with the same dignity and respect offered a human body. The container should be
dignified, and the pallbearers should carry it with honor. Because of the
compact nature of the ashes. Someone may be tempted to carry it more casually.
It is all that remains of a human being. It deserves respect.
