Funeral Ministry

The Funeral Ministry volunteers provide hospitality for friends and family of the deceased following a funeral Mass. They coordinate assistance and supplies to serve beverages and baked goods so that the grieving family may focus on being with their loved ones. This ministry recruits both hostesses and bakers willing to take a turn assisting with this parish offering. Bakers drop homemade goods off at church prior to the reception, while hostesses coordinate and facilitate the needs of those in attendance. These volunteers find joy in providing comfort to their guests, keeping in mind that someone will do it for their families when the time comes. This ministry is always eager to add new volunteers to its rosters.

Please contact a member of our office staff at (804) 448-9064 if you are able to assist with funeral receptions.
