Tell Bishop Morlino Gay/Lesbian Catholics Deserve Full Funerals

DignityUSA started this petition to james.bartylla@madisondiocese.org
All Catholic families deserve to know that their loved ones will be treated as a loved, respected member of the Church at the time of their death. Telling people in same-sex relationships that they may not be given the full funeral rites of our Church makes us second-class members of the Church. This will increase the pain and grief that our families will experience while dealing with the loss of someone they love.
We want ALL Catholics-including the LGBTQI Community-who seek Catholic funerals to know their requests will be honored, and that all families will be treated with compassion. Sign the petition to tell Bishop Morlino the "guidance" that discriminates against lesbian and gay people must be withdrawn.
