Catholic Mortuaries provides funeral service packages that follow the Order of Christian Funeral guidelines promulgated by the Church. The three principal ritual celebrations of a Roman Catholic funeral are:
The Vigil - The rite celebrated by the Christian community in the time following death and before the funeral liturgy. It is a time when loved ones show their respect and share their memories of the deceased.
Funeral Liturgy - Community's central liturgical celebration is the single movement beginning with the viewing, greeting of family and friends, and culminating in the prayers and farewell gestures at the cemetery.
Rite of Committal - At the conclusion of the funeral rites, it is the final act of caring for the body of the deceased member of the church held at the final resting place.
