THE SACRED

CORE OF LIFE

Spirituality is an awareness of the sacred core that underlies everyday life, which helps many people deal with the hardships of life. While doctors and scientists were once reluctant to recognize any connection between spirituality and medicine, findings over the past decade have compelled many of them to take a second look. Among the convincing evidence is one study that showed that death rates were lower than expected before an important religious holiday. This suggested to researchers that faith might have postponed death in these cases. It has also been found that patients undergoing open-heart surgery who received strength and comfort from their religion were three times more likely to survive than those who had no religious ties.

Loss near a time of holidays can be particularly challenging, not only the first year, but every year after that happens. At the MOSER FUNERAL HOME, we are sensitive to your needs as a family when you are dealing with grief. We are good with logistical details, with handling the service, and offering support.

“To touch the soul of another human being is to w alk on holy ground."
