FUNERAL POLICIES FOR OUR PARISHES​
Dear family,
 
Occasionally, it is important for us to share the funeral policies that guide all our parishes.  These guidelines have been in effect since 2021, and they help us keep our funeral celebrations prayerful and centered on our faith in the risen Christ.
 
1.  Wakes or viewings do not take place in our parish buildings.
Across our three parishes, we do not hold calling hours, viewings, or wakes in the church or parish buildings, whether the person is present in a casket or an urn.  These gatherings are best held at the funeral home, which is designed for that purpose.
2.  Eulogies are not part of the funeral Mass in our parishes.
Practices can vary from parish to parish, but in our communities, the funeral Mass remains focused on worship and prayer for the deceased.  For this reason, personal remarks or eulogies are not offered during the Mass itself.
3.  If the family wishes to offer reflections, they can take place after the funeral Mass.
Families may choose to have speakers share memories or reflections after the funeral Mass has ended.  There is no limit on the number of speakers or how long each may speak.
4.  The rite of committal is prayed in the church when eulogies will be offered.
When eulogies or reflections follow the funeral Mass, the priest prays the rite of committal in the church.  After the committal prayers, the closing song is sung.  Only then do the speakers or eulogists begin.  In this situation, the priest does not travel to the cemetery since the rite of committal has already been completed in the church.
 
May the promise of Christ's resurrection continue to bring comfort, strength, and peace to all who mourn.
 
God's peace,
 
Fr. Frisoni 
REMINDER:  HANDICAPPED PARKING
​As winter continues, I want to remind everyone to be careful and respectful when parking on our property.  Please remember that the blue handicapped parking spots near the entrances are reserved for those who truly need them.  Anyone who parks in these spaces must have the proper permit displayed.  Just as important, the striped lines next to those spots are not parking spaces.  These areas give people with mobility challenges the room they need to safely enter and exit their vehicles.
 
I also ask at St. Paul’s that no one park in the fire lane along the side of the handicapped parking spaces near our parish center.  Emergency vehicles must always be able to swing around that section.  A single parked car can block the entire lane.  Snow and ice can make the markings harder to see, but the rules still apply for everyone's safety.  Thank you for your attention to this matter and for helping keep our parish grounds safe and welcoming for all.
 
God's peace,
 
Fr. Frisoni
