Considerations For Religious Funerals

When families lose loved ones, planning Religious Funerals can be difficult. The reality of losing someone is just beginning to sink in, you feel like you're in a daze, yet a funeral needs to be planned. To help plan for Religious Funerals, here are six things to take into consideration.1. Open or closed casket. Sometimes, a person makes it known in advance whether or not he/she wants an open casket. If it's not known, then the choice is up to the family. In a Religious Funerals, families are often choose to have overall looking whereas family, friends, neighbors and co-workers have one last farewell of their loved one and to pay respects in an open casket form. However, if the loved had suffered a recent severe stroke and no longer looks the same, then a closed casket might be more appropriate. In either case, the immediate family should be provided the opportunity to view their loved one.2. Funeral vs. Memorial Service. If relatives aren't going to be able to arrive within a day or two, or the loved one's body has been cremated, then you might want to opt to have a memorial service rather than a funeral service. At a memorial service, the body is not present. The picture is commonly located at the top of the casket with flowers and ribbons and sometimes we also put some fruits and other memorable thing.3. Standard church setup or settings at home. Because many funeral homes aren't equipped to seat more than a hundred people, some families opt to have Religious Funerals at a church rather than the funeral home. The calling (viewing) hours are held at the funeral home.4. Music. For many Religious Funerals, music is part of the service. Is there a hymn that was particularly meaningful to your loved one? If so, do you want the people attending the funeral to sing the song, have someone sing a solo, play a CD of the song, or have a pianist play it as an instrumental? If the funeral is going to be held at a church, do you want an organist to play a prelude (quiet music while people enter the sanctuary)?5. Scripture. There are several Religious Funerals that have different scriptures that offer words of wisdom and comfort. For some who are planning a funeral service that is religious, incorporating funeral scriptures can help comfort and encourage the bereaved family, friends, and attendees. If there was a special verse that your loved one quoted often, then consider including it in the funeral service. Scripture reading can be done by both family or a person from the ministry?6. Powerpoint. Powerpoint, a computerized slideshow, has become a common component of several Religious Funerals. The powerpoint consists of several pictures of your loved one from when he/she was very little to the present time. Although a powerpoint will cause tears to be shed, it's also a beautiful time of reflecting on your loved one's life. People who may have only known your loved one for a brief amount of time will enjoy seeing the pictures as well.As you can see, there are a lot of decisions that need to be made when planning a funeral. Religious Funerals provide families with options as described above and the funeral director wants to accommodate your needs and wishes to the best of his ability.
