Making Funeral Arrangements

A funeral liturgy can be arranged for your loved one by first contacting the Parish Office at 248.693-0440.  One of our priests, Fr. Mike or Fr. Anthony, or our Pastoral Associate, Kathy Hasty, will arrange to meet with you to plan the funeral liturgy. We can also arrange for a vigil service (Scripture or Rosary service the evening before the funeral) if you choose. Materials will be provided to you to assist you in planning the funeral. Family involvement in the liturgy is strongly encouraged, and adds to the meaning of the experience for all involved.

A funeral luncheon here in Marian Hall can be provided following the funeral for our own parishioners or their immediate family members.  A donation of $3/person is asked to cover expenses, but will be waived if there is financial hardship.

A list of suggested musical selections for funeral liturgies will also be provided to you – you may select from these for the funeral liturgy. Contact our Music Minister, Leszek Bartkiewicz, at 248.693.0440 if you have any questions or special requests regarding music.

Know that you and your family are in our prayers at this time of loss, and that we are here to assist you.


Fr. Michael Verschaeve, Pastor

Fr. Anthony Camilleri, Associate Pastor
