Catholic Funerals

By Fr M • January 20, 2021
Having the sad task of planning a Funeral is never easy and can seem daunting. The documents (also at 'Prayer and Devotions' on this website) are intended to help. However, please do not hesitate to contact your priest who will help and guide you in the process. The first document is an A3 (4 x A4 sheets) printable document and is intended to as a help and guide to making clear your own wishes for your own funeral. It should be completed and retained with your important documents and Will or given to your family. The idea is to make things easier for your family to know your wishes concerning your funeral. Some people think that it is morbid to plan such things, however, a little planning can be a great help to those left behind.
