Making funeral arrangements

At this difficult time, our church is here to provide whatever assistance and comfort we can as you and your family mourn the loss of your loved one. We share in sorrowful prayer to give thanks for their life, and humbly ask for God’s mercy so their spirit may be welcomed into His Eternal Kingdom.

What do I do when my loved one has departed and entered eternal rest?

Contact us

Please contact our offices on 9836 1194 and your funeral home of choice to notify them of the passing of your loved one. If you do not have a preferred funeral home, the church can provide you with a list. The church and the funeral home will work hand-in-hand to make this process as easy as possible.

What next?

Once the arrangements have been made, the details, along with a picture of the deceased and the names of the survivors, should be provided to the church office so that they can send out an email notification to the members of the St. Mary’s Church community. The family may also wish to write a biography of the departed and send it to the church at least a day before the funeral service.
