Funerals During Holy Week
By St Mary Administrator @ 4:26 PM :: 1807 Views :: Article Rating :: Church News
 
This note is just a reminder that funerals during the last three days of Holy week (Thursday, Friday, Saturday) are not allowed by Church Law and custom. Yes, the importance of these days over-rides personal sorrow. This may seem uncaring but the Church wants everyone on the same page during these days. What the Church proposes is a service and burial. The Funeral Mass can be done beginning on Easter Tuesday. This is not new. This is part of the “unwritten traditions” of the church. More imformation can be obtained by calling Fr. Tom at 262-284-5771.
