First and foremost, if you are reading this for the first time, please accept our sympathy and promise to do all that we can to help you in this time of deep sorrow.

Typically, our office is contacted by the Funeral Home in which arrangements have been made.  
At this time, the Parish Secretary collects the following information:

• The Name and Age of the Deceased

• Date of Passing

• The Date and Time requested for the Funeral

• Funeral Home where services are to take place 

• Will the Funeral Mass take place at the Funeral Home or our Church?

• Cemetery being used for the burial

• Family member contact name and number

However, some families like to prepare for when the time will come and call our parish office ahead of time.  This is absolutely fine and we are happy to help.  contact Becky at the parish office, (504) 834-9977 or [email protected] 

Our Pastor or Parochial Vicar will contact the family member handling arrangements.
