Catholic funeral liturgy brings great consolation to family and friends of the deceased. At St Ben's we have a ministry of people who attend funerals and pray for the deceased and their families. If you are interested in participating in this prayer ministry please contact the parish office. 

If you would like to have a funeral service at St Benedict's, please have your funeral home make the arrangements. They will help you coordinate many of the details of the funeral. A priest or deacon will also meet with you to help with your spiritual needs. The following materials are available to assist families in preparing for the funeral.
