Planning A Funeral
The pastor and staff at St. Joseph the Worker Parish offer our condolences and prayers to you and your family at this difficult time. The funeral rites of the Church are meant to comfort and console the sorrowing and commend the deceased to the mercy of God as we offer worship, praise, and thanksgiving to God for the gift of life and proclaim our faith in the Resurrection from the dead. The information below is provided to assist you and your family in preparing the funeral rites that we will celebrate for your loved one who has returned to God. The Pastor from St. Joseph the Worker Parish will be in touch to review the funeral liturgy with you and to give you the opportunity to share with him about the life of the deceased.
