The Catholic Church offers practical and spiritual support to those faced with the prospect of death via the Art of Dying Well. We believe that death opens the way to new life. In dying, we close our eyes for the last time here, in order to be able to really see for the first time there.

All these died in faith, before receiving any of the things that had been promised, but they saw them in the far distance and welcomed them, recognising that they were only strangers and nomads on earth.

People who use such terms about themselves make it quite plain that they are in search of a homeland.  If they had meant the country they came from, they would have had the opportunity to return to it; but in fact they were longing for a better homeland, their heavenly homeland.

That is why God is not ashamed to be called their God, since he has founded the city for them.
Hebrews - 11-16
