We offer Funeral Services for Catholics and will do what we can to help friends and families of deceased loved ones to experience the love of God and His Church. In addition to funerals we can often offer receptions in the parish hall. Since the details are a bit complex, please call the parish office for details and arrangements. We also advise that you contact us at 541-664-1050 and do so before the funeral parlor is contacted so that you can save duplication of services and better plan knowing the options available. A list of funeral readings are provided at this link: Catholic Funeral Readings Options
If you are unable to come to church we want the church to come to you. It can be temporary while you recover from surgery or illness, or long term due to illnesses or disabilities. To arrange someone to pray and bring communion to you or your loved one, simply call the church office at 541-664-1050 and ask to speak with Joyce Marks. She will be happy to arrange someone to visit you. If you need a priest to offer the sacrament of the sick or to hear a confession just let Joyce know and a priest will come visit as well.
If you are in need of prayer or you want to have a loved one placed on the prayer chain, simply call the parish office at 541-664-1050 or email us at churchoffice with the extension @shepherdcatholic.com. We’ve got a group of committed parishioners ready to offer prayer for you and your intentions.
