As a community, we share in your sorrow and seek to lift you up in prayer
during this time of grief. We understand that you may be feeling confused, sad, stunned, and overwhelmed by your loss. Although death brings a deep sense of sadness and loss, faith provides strength and reassurance.
As Catholics, we believe that "Life is changed, not ended."
The Catholic funeral liturgy celebrates a particular set of Rites to help us through our initial sorrow, to help us pray together as a community for our loved one, and to express our belief in the Resurrection.
