Funerals

Funerals at OLEM take place as part of the 12:15 Mass on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. To book the Requiem Mass of your loved one, please contact the Parish Office to establish a date by calling 01223 350 787 or emailing olemoffice@rcdea.org.uk

Please find below a useful pamphlet with further details about Catholic funerals, including what steps to take, orders of service and costs involved: General Funeral Information

Once you have agreed a funeral date with the Parish Office, please fill out the following information form and return it to us at your earliest convenience so that OLEM staff & clergy can assist you with honouring your loved one: Funeral Details Sheet.

Since the General Instruction of the Roman Missal does not permit an Eulogy during the Mass we will allow prior to the Mass a few words concerning the deceased. The Mass will begin immediately after.
