WITNESSES TO EVERLASTING LIFE
• Death is not the end! Respect for the person necessarily includes respect for the body.
• The Church prefers Catholics be buried and memorialized in a Catholic cemetery or on sacred ground and recommends that the pious custom of full body burial be retained.
• Cremation is not forbidden, but out of respect for the dignity of the body, cremains are to be buried
intact; memorialized, and without scattering, separating, combining, dividing, or encasing in jewelry.
CATHOLIC CEMETERIES - DID YOU KNOW?
• There are 66 Catholic cemeteries in New Hampshire.
• Catholics are entitled to the three-part Funeral Rite: Vigil (Wake), Funeral Mass, and Committal.
• Catholic cemeteries provide locations for both full body burials and burial of cremains.
MONUMENTS OF HOPE AND PEACE
• Catholic cemeteries represent our shared hope in the resurrection of the body.
• Burying the dead fulfills a Corporal Work of Mercy, while Catholic cemeteries provide a place
to pray for the dead and fulfill the Spiritual Work of Mercy.
