Lazarus Ministry

LAZARUS MINISTRY
When a loved one dies, we are here to help.

What is the Lazarus Ministry?
When a loved one dies, it is a time of great stress and emotion. Although nothing can take away the pain, our faith offers immense comfort through the funeral liturgy and its accompanying traditions. In the Catholic funeral tradition, we not only comfort the bereaved, but we pray for the deceased.
The St. Luke Lazarus Ministry was formed to offer comfort and assistance to families during these stressful times. At the present time, Cyndi Gartung, coordinates this ministry. Once notified of a death, she offers guidance to the family in planning the rosary, wake service, and funeral, including the readings and music, all with the approval of our pastor.

Cyndi Gartung - 615-636-3170 and email is [email protected]. Information is also posted on our St. Luke Facebook page.
