Can only go by the article but the priest should be stood down and apologise to the family. He was supposed to comfort the family not condemn the deceased to hell.
Only God knows whether the teenager was truly saved and in turmoil committed suicide but the the priest didn't even know the cause of death.
How many were turned away from God because of this?

I saw an article on this not long after this happened. This story reiterates what I read then. So uncalled for!
Our dd attended a fundy Baptist school. One of the students, the son of an assistant pastor there, committed suicide. The church staff kept a picture of the boy in his casket and would pull it out from time to time to use as an object lesson to keep folks in line. I don't know how the boy's mother could stand the heartbreak of such stupidity of the staff, but that's how they rolled.
