Funerals

We celebrate a person’s life with a Funeral Mass to remind us of the eternal promises of Jesus Christ. The Funeral Mass is our final opportunity to commend the deceased to God’s mercy, and to reflect on how the person’s life reflected the love and teachings of Jesus Christ. Here we are reminded through the prayers, readings and songs of the promises of Jesus Christ, that one day, those who have put their faith in Him will rise again and live with him forever. In the Mass we encounter the Lord Jesus and His mercy, proclaim His word in the Gospels and show reverence for the deceased as we say our final farewell. Please contact the Parish Office (440-255-3404) to schedule a Funeral Mass at St. Mary’s.

Please know that you have our deepest sympathy and prayers as you make this final journey with your loved one.
