The Funeral Dinner Committee is a ministry of compassion and hospitality, offering comfort and support to grieving families during their time of loss. By preparing and serving a meal following a funeral, members provide not only nourishment for the body but also a sense of warmth, community, and care for those who are mourning. This simple act of kindness becomes a powerful expression of Christian love and solidarity.
In our Catholic Community of Parishes, the Funeral Dinner Committee embodies the Beatitudes—blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Their service reminds us that faith is lived not only in prayer but also in presence. Through their generosity, they help families experience the Church as a loving family that walks beside them, offering the peace and hope that come from Christ’s promise of eternal life.
