About

We work with the local funeral homes to provide for the needs of those who have lost a loved one. The funeral home will call Seton to schedule the funeral and we will follow up with a family member to work out the details involved in planning the Mass of Christian burial. The registered, active (attending) parishioner fee is $250.00 for holding a Mass of Christian Burial at St Elizabeth Ann Seton. The non-parishioner (or inactive parishioner) fee is $400.00.  This fee is included within the cost of the funeral home services and the funeral home will pay the fee to the parish. There is an additional fee of $100/hr for visitations in the narthex (limited to 75 guests due to fire code regulations).

Seton Funeral Liturgy Planning Ministry Contact

The Funeral Liturgy Planning (Bereavement Support) Committee exists to help families prepare funeral liturgies for their loved ones. This is often a very difficult time for our parishioners who need our love, care, and assistance. Members of the committee meet with the bereaved and guide them through the choosing of scripture readings and music to be used during the liturgy.  
Parishioners also may meet with the Committee as part of their overall funeral planning. The Committee will save your preferences for readings and music for when the time comes. This can greatly help loved ones when these Funeral Liturgy decisions are made in advance. Then they know they are carrying out your wishes.
