During a wake it may happen that family members would like to have a structured time of prayer beside the deceased. Sometimes, however, they find it difficult because they can't find the words or because no one feels comfortable taking the lead and will ask the Parish to provide a minister to pray the Rosary with the family.
St. Patrick Rosary Ministry provides the minister to lead the Rosary with the family at the wake and offer support to the family as needed. Rosaries and prayer guides are available for the family to pray along during the service and to take with them at the conclusion of the Rosary.
If you are interested in serving in this Ministry, please contact chairs Carolyn Hooper or Tom Powers, or contact the office.
