This Supplement to the Order of Christian Funerals is intended to meet the current pastoral and liturgical needs in Canada given the frequency of those choosing cremation for their departed loved ones both before and after the Funeral Liturgy.

Content includes appropriate texts, rubrics and notes for:

• Funeral Liturgies (Funeral Mass and Funeral Liturgy Outside Mass) with Cremated Remains Present
• Rite of Committal: Burial of Entombment of Cremated Remains

        o  Following a Funeral Liturgy

        o  Following “At the Crematorium: Gathering in the Presence of the Body”

        o  With Final Commendation – when no other celebration takes place or when Final             Commendation is not celebrated

• At the Crematorium:

        o  Gathering in the Presence of the Body (preceding or following a Funeral Liturgy)

        o  Gathering in the Presence of the Body with Final Commendation (when no Funeral             Liturgy precedes or follows)

Helpful charts are included in the Introduction, acknowledging which rites can be used in various circumstances. That is,

• When a Funeral Liturgy is Celebrated Before Cremation takes place
• When a Funeral Liturgy is Celebrated After Cremation takes place
• When a Funeral Liturgy is Not Celebrated
