Flag on Coffin









Flag on Coffin


Question from on 06-02-2007:


The rubrics for a funeral state before the coffin enters the Church
anything on the coffin such as the American flag must be removed and
replaced with a white Pall. As the coffin leaves the Church the Flag
may be put back on. This is not a statement about the war, it is a
statement that the funeral is about the Church and our faith and not
the state.

Dear Deacon Bill,

Thank you for the clarification.

Dr. Geraghty
