This Order of Christian Funeral ritual book now includes the cremation rite which was approved by the Bishops Committee on the Litury and published by Catholic Book Publishing Company in 1997. This durable blue hardcover edition of the Order of Christian Funerals can stand up to the wear it is subject to in the church and at the cemetery. If you know a seminarian or a recently ordained priest who needs their first copy of the Order of Christian Funerals ritual book, this makes a great addition to their library.
