Our parish reaches out to assist, support and build community with:



Funeral Planning
We provide assistance in planning:

  • Funerals
  • Memorial services
  • Rosaries and vigils
that reflect the rich liturgical tradition of the parish.

Ministry members help parishioners and their families select appropriate scriptural readings, prayers and music that have special significance for them.  During this challenging time, they also arrange for musicians and vocalists, work with funeral homes and cemeteries, and provide support to the family and friends of those who have died.

For Assistance With These Services:

Grief Support
Coping with the death of a loved one is one of the hardest things we have to do in life.

Our St. Francis grief support program, “Grief, Gratitude & Grace”, is a 6-week series that addresses this journey of loss and healing.

The series provides an opportunity for those who have experienced the death of a loved one to join with others in a loving, healing environment to share their stories and experience. Each evening also includes information on coping with grief, the tasks and characteristics of grief, reading lists, ritual, and prayer.
