Catholic funerals centre around prayers for the person who has died with a Church service or memorial mass.

 

A Catholic funeral mass typically follows a set format, and sometimes involve a Requiem Mass combining the Eucharistic Prayer and Holy Communion.

 

For help planning a Catholic Funeral, a member of the bereaved family or Executor should generally contact the appointed Funeral Director in the first instance who will make the arrangements and introduction to the local Catholic Priest if the Parish Priest is not already known to the family.  

 

By way of introduction and not a a recommendation, please see a list below of the local Crawley Funeral Directors that you may find helpful.
