Catholic Funeral Mass Program

How to create a Catholic Funeral Mass Program? What should be included in a Catholic memorial service program?

When you are organizing a funeral, there is a lot you need to consider. Since a funeral is often promptly held after the person passed away, time is of the essence. A good guideline is within the first few days, following up on your loss, can provide some guidance.

Handwrite the funeral program on stationery rather than typing and printing from a computer. If you want to use a store-bought card, write a personal note on stationery and tuck it inside the card.

Write the mass program in your own style, as if you are saying it, and make sure to give meaning the way you would normally speak to the person.

There is no reason to get too fancy and try to come up with a poem or verse unless that is how you normally speak (which could be weird) or unless you’re a writer by profession.
