Jesus is laid in the tomb, the 14th Station of the Cross, in the Church of St. Martin de Porres on the island of St. Martin. Years ago at a funeral I was celebrating I saw a parishioner in the congregation who was not related to the deceased. I asked her what brought her to the funeral. She replied, "My mother told me that burying the dead was one of the corporal works of mercy,"
