Funerals

“The Church intercedes on behalf of the deceased because of its confident belief that death is not the end nor does it break the bonds forged in life.”

Order of Christian Funerals, #4

Begin the process by calling our Parish Office at (727) 531-7721 to speak to us and let us know when your loved one’s passing occurred and what funeral home you will be making arrangements with.  We are praying for you during this difficult time.

Cathy Blanchard, our Director of Music & Funerals, and Lucy Lopez de Garcia, our Funeral Reception Coordinator, will work with with the deceased’s family to plan a wake service if requested, the funeral mass at the church, and/or a graveside service. We will help guide you through planning the funeral mass, including readings and music.
