FUNERALS

Jesus said 'I am the resurrection and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me'.

We are sorry that someone you care about has died. The church is the fitting place for any Catholic to have his or her funeral. This may be a Mass or a simple service, but it will of course be carried out in accordance the rituals and teaching of the Catholic Church.

It is normally the undertaker whom you have chosen who makes the practical arrangements - the time and date has to be possible for you, the church, the undertakers themselves and the cemetery (or crematorium). The hymns and readings for the Mass or Service, however, are chosen in consultation with the priest, together with any spoken tribute you might wish to include. It is vital that the priest is involved with these choices because he is the one responsible for leading the service.

The Church fee covers everything whether a Mass or service, a reception the night before, travel to the crematorium or cemetery and the burial of ashes. The organist's fee is separate and so is the choir's, should you choose to have its services. For practical and copyright purposes, it is not possible to play recorded music in church. Our web camera means that anyone with access to the internet may see and hear any funeral that they are unable to attend in person.
