Bereavement Ministry

Dedicated to helping members of our parish community during times of mourning and grief, parishioners volunteer to be present at the visitation/vigil and funeral as hospitality ministers or to be a bereavement companion, who keeps in touch with the family for one year after the death of a loved one. This ministry is one of compassion and listening, of offering resources, and nurturing those who grieve. Hospitality ministers are on call while bereavement companions make a minimum of four contacts in a year.
