Our burial option offers families the right to properly lay their relatives to rest in grounds consecrated by the church and blessed by the Bishop. The service is proceeded in accordance with the Order of Christian Funerals, which consists of three phases:
- Vigil and Related Rites and Prayers – family and friends are given the opportunity to assemble in the presence of the deceased to offer support and prayers to and for each other as well as the deceased, and recall their Catholic life.
- The Funeral Liturgy – frequently celebrated within Mass where we are allowed to relive the Easter mystery and Christ’s promise of eternal life.
- The Rite of Committal – bidding farewell to our beloved brother or sister in Christ. At this moment we turn over the care of our loved one to the cemetery as we await the resurrection of the dead along with the Communion of Saints.
