Funerals:

When a death in the family occurs, please call the mortuary and let them know that you would like a Catholic funeral at St. Rita’s Church. They will contact us to schedule the funeral Mass.

The funeral liturgy in a church setting is a final opportunity to commend the deceased to God’s mercy, and to reflect on how the person’s life mirrored the love and teachings of Jesus Christ, who promises that one day, the Christian will rise again and live with him in the New Jerusalem. Forever.
