LA VITA NON È TOLTA MA TRASFORMATA
The Christian sense of prayer for the dead
It is a small volume, also available in Spanish, signed by Cardinal Jorge Medina Éstevez, whose preface is by Arthur Roche, Archbishop Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments. Dedicated to all Christians united in faith, he tries to provide answers to those questions about life and death. Questions that each of us asks ourselves when we lose a loved one. It is possible to reflect on the meaning of funerals and why to take part in them, not only with reference to the doctrine expressed in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (from number 1680 to 1690) but also, in the light of being and feeling Christian, men and women shaped by God's Love, in the faith condensed by the ancient and wise words of the Creed.
