Funerals

Christian burial is one of the corporal works of mercy. We are called to love each other through these times.

The focus of the funeral is to pray for the person who has died, care for their family and friends, and help them encounter the abundant love of Christ in the church. 

Organizing the funeral can be a very stressful time for the family. We have found that following a set of guidelines is helpful to minimize this. Please see our funeral guidelines below and contact the front office at (612) 331-7941 or info@gophercatholic.org for scheduling.
