Funeral

“‘If one member suffers in the body of Christ which is the Church, all the members suffer with that member” (1 Cor 12:26). For this reason, those who are baptized into Christ and nourished at the same table of the Lord are responsible for one another…So too when a member of Christ’s Body dies, the faithful are called to a ministry of consolation to those who have suffered the loss of one whom they love.”  - Order of Christian Funerals, no. 8

Funeral Planning

When a loved one has died, we offer consolation and guidance to the family members in planning a funeral or memorial liturgy. This is best done in person, and appointments are made by contacting Lee, our funeral coordinator. Get started here with our funeral planning guide.
