Dying. This is one of the most decisive moments, if not the most decisive, in human existence. The same is true of the Christian life, where the challenge is precisely to die in Christ. However, the way in which contemporary reality views death and its accompaniment is overturning the habits established until the last few decades. This raises the question of whether there is a specifically Christian way of dying in order to die in Christ. Based on the liturgical institutions of funerals as they have developed over the centuries, the study then examines the liturgical books, in their French and German versions, to understand how each, with its specific features, attempts to respond to current paradigms and implement a Christian vision of the passage that is death. A reminder of the Eucharistic purpose of Christian life and its community roots could help to renew pastoral care at this time, both for the person who is about to die and for those close to him or her.
