Medical Directive Statements/Durable Power of Attorney for Healthcare
Our friends at Christian Life Resources have developed a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care – Christian Version document to enable Christians to provide informed, legal, and Christ-centered direction for their medical care in the event they can no longer express their wishes. This is a legal document that allows you to designate a person to serve as your health care agent, allows you to make some selections regarding the kind of treatment or care you want provided, and includes a Christian witness to your faith and to the sanctity of human life.

Final Victory: Contemplating the Death and Funeral of a Christian – Milestones
This excellent resource is produced by and available from Concordia Publishing House.
This is one of the four books intended to address the spiritual needs of Christians during milestone events of life. The death of a Christian is an important event as we receive all that God has promised, however grief and sorrow often hinder this thinking.
Final Victory:
- Gives the pastor or Christian counselor a theologically sound, organized way to briefly present the hope and comfort of Scripture.
- Provides resources to help the pastor and mourner make and record the decisions of what will constitute the details of the funeral service.
- Provides a source of comfort in the days after the funeral for loved ones.
