The Bridgeport Diocese recently released Norms for the Order of Christian Funerals. Accompanying these Norms is a host of practical planning guides prepared by the Leadership Institute ( https://formationreimagined.org/funeral-norms/). Our Director of Music Ministries, Glen Segger, will reflect on this material, and offer some practical suggestions for music especially appropriate for the Funeral Mass. This reflection will not only benefit those who are planning a funeral for a loved one, but will also benefit those who wish to preplan their own Funeral Mass. Glen will even share some of the choices he has made for his own funeral!
