Anointing of the Sick: takes place regularly in the Hospitals and Nursing Homes. If a family member is in danger of death, a priest is always available to call out to your home for the Last Rites. (Note: this sacrament, like all the sacraments, is for the living. If possible, do not wait until the person is dead to call the priest).

Funerals: Generally, the Funeral Mass is celebrated by the priest of your area, unless you request otherwise. After you have met with your funeral director, you should make an arrangement to meet the priest, who will sit down with you and discuss the Funeral Mass, readings, music, prayers of the faithful.
Our Parish choir is available to sing at the Funeral Mass. Obviously, the hymns and music used should be in keeping with the religious celebration and the setting in the church, in the presence of the Eucharist.
