What does the Catholic Church say about having cremation urns at home?
Asked 4 years ago
I've had my late grandmother's ashes kept in an urn beside my bed for many years. We were very close and this way I feel like she's still close to me. The problem is, I recently joined the Catholic faith, and I'm not sure if I can still keep my grandma's ashes in my home. Can someone please tell me what the Catholic Church says about keeping cremation urns at home? This is a real moral dilemma for me. Please help!
