“As we take leave, give our hearts peace in the firm hope that one day we will live in the mansion you have prepared for us in heaven.”
​(from the Order of Christian Funerals)

Please accept our condolences and know that the prayers of our parish community are with you at your time of loss and sorrow. We are here for you at this difficult time.

Funerals are celebrated Monday-Saturday usually in the morning or early afternoon.

To schedule a funeral for your loved one, please begin by contacting the funeral home of your choice. The funeral director will help to collect the necessary information and act as the liaison to the parish to set the date and time for the services. When the date and time have been set, the priest or deacon will contact you to plan the liturgy.

Cremation is permitted for members of the Catholic Church. Please see the Diocese of Youngstown’s Guidelines for Cremation for more information.
