The Pros and Cons of Renting a Casket for a Funeral
Funerals are a time to remember our loved ones and honor their lives. Many families spend a great deal of time planning the details of the service, from choosing the location and the flowers to selecting the casket that will hold the remains. One choice that some families face is whether to rent a casket or to buy one. Renting a casket means that you use it for the funeral service and then return it afterward, rather than keeping it permanently. This option can affect both the cost of the funeral and the way the service is presented.

A New Heaven. A New Earth. I moti dell'animo The movements of the soul . THE REVELATION Revelation 21:3-4 21 Then I saw “A new Heaven and a new Earth,” for the first Heaven and the first Earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
