GUIDELINES FOR FUNERALS Statement from Munster Bishops
We recommend that all Catholic funeral liturgies in our Dioceses be limited to the funeral Mass. In other words, there should be no removal to the church the evening before. The Covid-19 crisis will pass and there will be other possibilities for Mass or prayers to be said for those who die during this period.
-
Anniversary Masses: We continue to pray for and remember or deceased relatives and friends throughout this difficult time. All anniversary masses will be rearranged at a future date.
