The Roman Catholic Church has long-standing traditions regarding Catholic funeral rites.
Join us here at the Church of St. Gregory the Great for a presentation that will carefully take you through the journey of preparing a Catholic funeral and the rituals involved. Give a gift to your family by making known your wishes for your church funeral. Advanced planning gives your family the guidance they need to feel comfortable that they are carrying out the decisions you made for a most stressful time. Your planning becomes an act of faith, a statement of your Catholic convictions.
Even if you are currently in good health, planning the components of your Catholic funeral rites including the readings and music for your Mass of Christian Burial, prior to your passing, allows your wishes to be known. This planning is a concrete sign of your love for surviving family members.
Come learn more about how you can make decisions now about your Roman Catholic funeral. Presentations are at 9:30am and 7:00pm on Monday, January 9, 2023 in the Church.
