“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” Matthew 5:4

The Bereavement Ministry journeys with parishioners who have suffered the loss of a loved one, both during the time of death and through the months following the funeral. This ministry also sponsors our annual Memorial Tree Lighting on the First Sunday of Advent, a tradition started by the late Connie Christoff. All parishioners are encouraged to bring an ornament in memory of their deceased loved one to place on our memorial tree.

A support group to help those who have lost a loved one as they move through the grieving process begins in September through May. Please contact Deacon Tony Giordano at (724) 385-8628.
