Funeral Planning

“For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have died.” – 1 Thessalonians 4:14

If you are unsure of certain aspects of funeral planning, we can answer any questions you may have; you may also consult the Bereavement and Funeral Page by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops by clicking here. This is a wonderful resource that we encourage you to visit.

After the Funeral

We are here for you as you go through the healing process. Everyone reacts in different ways, and that is OK. Our Care and Compassion ministries are here to help, particularly Griefshare and the Ministry of Consolation. Of course, any of our priests are also here for any spiritual counseling you and your loved ones need. Know that you will always be treated with compassion and support here at Saint Ambrose.

Rest assured that you and your loved ones are in our prayers. Together, we await the day when Christ returns, bringing back those who have gone before us.
