There is nothing you need more than the warm, reassuring voice of one who has traveled this path before. . . and survived after suffering the death of a spouse. In Finding Your Way After Your Spouse Dies, Marta Felber offers just such a voice-caring, hopeful, always pointing ahead to a tomorrow that will be a little easier than today. Having experienced her own spouse's death, Felber is never glib or simplistic. She knows the grief her readers are feeling and she encourages them to give it full expression. At the same time, she offers sound, practical suggestions on how to navigate difficult days. This book shies away from none of the difficult issues of bereavement. Felber gently urges her readers toward careful, honest examination of the issues they face.Author: Richard Gilbert

Unit price perOur Faithful Departed:Where They Are and Why It Matters
Awarded third place in theology by the Association of Catholic Publishers and third place in grief and bereavement by the Catholic Media Association.
When someone we love dies, it's difficult to look beyond our grief to understand that they are still with us.
And yet we hear in the funeral liturgy that life is changed not ended. InOur Faithful Departed, University of Notre Dame theologian Leonard J. DeLorenzo shows us what this means and how we are called to remain faithful in our relationships with the dead.
Those whom we have known and loved in this life we have only known and loved partially, imperfectly, DeLorenzo writes. In heaven, what has been partial shall be made complete, and what has been imperfect shall be perfected.
He explains that the Catholic Church teaches that heaven is not so much a place as it is a perfect communion in Christ where the living and the dead are forever united.
In this book, you will learn that:
- St. Teresa of Calcutta thought of her own life as a practice for heaven;
- the Eucharist is a prayer for the dead, an offering brought to the altar;
- Da de los Muertosis an understanding that death is not the opposite of life, but part of it;
- Christ wants us to broaden and deepen our notions of the body;
- we can practice communion with the dead by praying for them, remembering them by name during the Mass, sharing memories of them, and celebrating them in devotional practices.
DeLorenzo relates his own story of the loss of his grandparents and shares heartwarming experiences from other Catholics including Laura Kelly Fanucci, Stephanie DePrez, and John Cavadini who have felt the connection with their lost friends and loved ones.
DeLorenzo said that the Church must encourage communion with the dead through public acts such as Eucharistic processions, prayer, monthly adoration with prayers for the souls in purgatory, and by accompanying the grieving with tenderness and compassion.

Unit price perPraying Our Goodbyes: A Spiritual Companion Through Life's Losses and Sorrows
Everyone has unique goodbyes times of losing someone or something that has given life meaning and value. With the touch of a poet, Joyce Rupp offers her wisdom on "these experiences of leaving behind and moving on, the stories of union and separation that are written in all our hearts." Praying Our Goodbyes, Rupp says, is about the spirituality of change.
It is a book for anyone who has experienced loss, whether a job change, the end of a relationship, the death of a loved one, a financial struggle, a mid-life crisis, or an extended illness. It is designed to help readers reflect, ritualize, and re-orient themselves to help heal the hurts caused by goodbyes and the anxieties encountered when one season of life ends and another begins.
