“Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” ( Matthew 5:4)

The Repast Ministry is committed to providing comfort and peace to families after the funeral and interment of their loved one. The ministry reaches out to families of deceased registered parishioners by preparing a meal served in the comfortable surroundings of the Rosemont Room, allowing time for relaxation and fellowship with others.

Membership: The Repast Ministry is open to all parishioners who would like to volunteer their time in service to the Lord. Duties may include preparing food, setting tables and serving food. Members work in teams on a rotating basis.

Training: No formal training is required; however, members may pursue a short training course for Food Service Manager Certification offered by The Prince George’s Health Department. The coordinator will arrange for training.
