The death of a Christian is not an isolated event; death happens in the midst of a family and circle of friends. It also takes place within a community of believers, who surround the deceased in a spirit of love and support for the bereaved.

In the Church’s funeral rites, we offer consolation for the family and the community, express our faith in God and the resurrection of Jesus Christ and affirm the dignity of every human being, in death as in every stage of life.

Funeral arrangements at Saint Benedict Parish are coordinated through Ann-Marie Tobin. Please contact the parish office to be put in contact with Ann Marie.
