Funeral Planning

When a loved one dies, the task of making arrangements for the funeral can seem overwhelming. Please be assured that St. Mary’s is here to offer you comfort and support.  We know that the death of a loved one can be a time of great loss, confusion, and sadness.  Our Priests, Deacons, and Bereavement Ministers are prepared to help you in your time of need.

Once a funeral director has notified our church of a death, one of our Bereavement Ministers or priests will contact you. Our Bereavement Ministers are carefully trained and will provide assistance and support as you plan the Funeral Mass or Memorial Mass for your loved one.
