Funeral planning


Funeral directors assist in the preparations of the Mass of Christian Burial, working with the pastor and parish staff. The funeral director may contact the parish to coordinate the arrangements. The parish will then reach out to the family of the deceased to plan the Mass of Christian Burial by choosing readings, lectors, hymns, and other aspects of the funeral rites.

Funerals are normally celebrated in the parish of the deceased. However, another parish may be chosen, which requires the consent of the pastor of that parish and notification to the pastor of the deceased.
