Funeral

My auntie passed away.During the time she was struggling with cancer disease, she gets to know about Jesus Christ, and accepted Him. Tonight, it is my first time attending Christian Funeral.

I am a new believer in Christianity, hence it takes me to know about death in Christianity. The ceremony was quiet and peaceful, we sang songs, prayed, 追思 (if i am not mistaken the name) - anyone can come forward to say about anything about the dead, her/his history, characters,etc.. i saw this in the movie, but tonight i witness it. Few people came forward said about her faithfulness to Jesus, and her determination to fight against the disease, i was so so touched by their words and my auntie's spirit towards Christianity. When a lady came forward saying she was from FGA(church i attended before), has known my auntie since last year August, it started drawing my attention to listen to her words. She was a bit aggressive, raised the tone of her voice, and cried. She made everybody feel uncomfortable especially for those non believer and also the new believer-i am talking about myself, i am not sure about the rest. I feel a bit nervous at that moment, i did not know what she will do, keep shouting until someone stop her? I have no idea, i just hope this would not happen, but it did. Finally, the Pastor stood up to stop her, and i believed she was a bit out of control, or too sad about her death.

I think this is the first time for my parents to know about Jesus, and i have no idea how to explain about the incident, because this really gives a bad impression to them in Christianity. Mum said she was frighten, believed this is a bit 邪。。。it really spoiled the impression.
