Funeral Planning & Grief Support

Funeral Liturgy Pre-Planning


Many people really struggle with death and don’t even want to talk about funerals. For people of faith, it is a normal and expected part of our journey to eternal life with Jesus. Are you interested in picking out your preferred scripture readings and music for your own funeral—this can be comforting to you and a huge help to your family. I will meet with anyone interested to help you with the planning process. You can begin by picking up a packet either in the parish office or on the Christian Service table in Higgins Hall. Take it home and spend some time with it and then call or email to set up an appointment to review your plan. ~ Marie Sheridan, St. Agnes Funeral Coordinator
