Planning a Funeral

Father Mark Harrington, Pastor
623-465-9740 x103

The death of a loved one can be a stressful time. At our Catholic Community of St. Rose and The Mission of the Good Shepherd, we invite you to honor your loved one with a funeral service that will celebrate his or her life and help others to mourn.

If you have lost a loved one and would like to make funeral arrangements, please call our Parish Office at 623-465-9740, and Fr. Mark will assist you in the process of planning the funeral and celebrating the life of your loved one. May God bless you in your time of grief.

We have provided below Scripture selections and suggestions for music that may give comfort at this time. Please feel free to request any of these as a way to remember your loved one and celebrate their life.
