How we Celebrate Funerals
The staff of St. Anselm's has decided to focus some energy this year on how we celebrate Funerals here in the parish.
We want to get some coordinated vesture for Funerals, including Priest-vestments, Deacn vestments, and a matching Pall cloth to vest the deceased.
We also want to get ready for those funeral celebrations where the family is requesting a funeral mass in the presence of cremains. That means we need some new furniture for such celebrations.
I really think that if we celebrate weddings, funerals, baptisms, and confirmations well, then the everyday and Sunday celebrations will benefit greatly!
