An Introduction to Bereavement Ministry: Caring for those who mourn

By Corinna Laughlin

This resource presents a bereavement ministry that flows from the liturgical and pastoral vision of the Church's official funeral rites and ensures that all ministers - ordained, lay professional staff, and volunteer ministers are working out of a shared understanding of that vision. In pastoral and engaging prose, the author unfolds the Church's theology of Christian death, the paschal mystery, the communion of saints and the healing power of the rites. This book addresses ministry with the dying and with the bereaved at the time of death and presents the range of pastoral services the parish and its bereavement team can offer, both in the early days and throughout the year following a death.
