Funeral Mass

In Paul Turner's Blog by Paul Turner

Q: May a Funeral Mass be celebrated for a Christian who is not Catholic?

This situation is not listed among the reasons why the rite outside of Mass might be used.  I know that tradition seems to have been that only a Catholic would have the “benefit” of a Mass being celebrated for them.  However, all of the language in the General Introduction speaks of the deceased as being a Christian.

Thank you for clarifying.
