It is also a time to consider our own mortality.This informational session is for those who wish to learn more about Catholic funerals and related rituals and who may wish to plan their own funeral. Each participant will receive a copy of Now and at the Hour of Our Death, which offers guidance in planning your own funeral.
This seminar is free of charge. A donation of $3 to offset the cost of the booklet will be appreciated.
The workshop will not address other end-of-life issues, living wills, or estate planning.
