HOLY Cross Funerals is a work of
the Holy Cross Parish Redcliffe City
which was registered in February,
1999, and commenced its apostolic
works in March, 1999.
Over the years, with the guidance of the parish
priests, it has developed into a funeral ministry
work as an outreach of the parish.
Our mission is to provide affordable Christian
funeral service to all denominations and faiths
with a genuine level of care that will not be
diminished or determined by faith, price, race, or
community regard.
This is to be known as: “Holy Cross Funerals
One Level of Care Policy”.
The Church confidently proclaims that God
has created each person for eternal life.
At the moment of death, life is changed – not
ended – as an eternal dwelling is made ready for
us in Heaven.
When that time comes to move from this life
to the next, Holy Cross Funerals will be there to
serve and comfort.
As a not-for-profit ministry of the Church we
are an extension of your faith community.
At death, the focus of Holy Cross Funerals
is to bring families back to the church with the
celebration of Funeral Mass.
As Catholics we are blessed with the promise
of life everlasting.
The church journeys alongside us through our
lives.

loved ones and entrust them into God’s loving
care.
Holy Cross Funerals endeavours to build
relationships with parishes and actively partici-
pates with Church entities as seen in our “Aging
Wisely” program.
This program has brought Holy Cross Funer-
als into a closer relationship with Centacare and
a greater involvement within parishes and their
communities.
Holy Cross Funerals, under the guidance of
its priest and management, would welcome
the opportunity to participate and contribute to
future planning of parishes and the needs of their
communities.

will be there to serve
