Office of Bereavement

If you are mourning the loss of a loved one, the support of your Catholic faith community should be a source of comfort and strength. We are here to assist individuals and families as they live through their own Paschal Mystery of grief and loss.

Our office of Family Ministry provides ongoing support to individuals and parishes by maintaining a list of resources for bereavement support groups, counselors, conferences, workshops and other events to assist the bereaved. We also offer training for parish volunteers to become facilitators in Bereavement Ministry, or in the Ministry of Consolation.
