In reviewing this matter, it was discovered that many years ago when a member of the Catholic faithful died, the wake or visitation would often take place in the family home. The purpose of this event was to gather as a family to mourn, tell stories and to pray together. Eventually, the age of funeral homes arose, and funeral home became the place for visitations.

Today more families are requesting to hold the visitation for a loved one in church. This increasing trend to hold visitation in church can be attributed to several factors including, a matter of convenience, and cutting costs.

One of the concerns about having visitation in church is that the sacred space is compromised by noise and activity unbecoming of the reverence due to the Blessed Sacrament. The recent National Eucharistic Revival called a greater attention to the Holy Eucharist and the need to practice and maintain proper respect and reverence. While we pray for the dead in our churches, they are not meant to be a funeral home.

Bishop Bonnar addresses the decision behind funeral visitation being eliminated in church buildings or facilities starting December 1
