Funeral Planning Ministry
Judy Yost and Mary Zizzo – 239-561-2245 | info@johnxxiii.net
Mission Statement: The Mission of Funeral Ministry is to guide and assist with the preparation of the Mass for the death of a loved one. We meet with the families-friends to help them prepare and plan the readings, prayers and music for the funeral liturgy. We are here to provide spiritual support and to help with the details of planning the funeral and burial. Likewise, we are available to assist with pre-planning for those who wish to do so. We work to console and support those who experience a death of loved one, so they will feel the healing comfort of God through the Celebration of a Catholic Mass.
