Abstract

The article, adapted from the book "Liturgy on the Edge: Pastoral and Attractional Worship," by Samuel Wells, discusses the use of liturgy in relation to church services for people affected by suicide. Topics include the condemnation of suicide by the Roman Catholic Church, the acknowledgement of loss in liturgy, and the role of the service in overcoming isolation.
