Understanding Catholic Funeral Rites in Singapore

Catholic funerals in Singapore follow the Order of Christian Funerals as prescribed by the Roman Catholic Church. The rites typically include a Vigil (Wake) service, Funeral Mass at the church, and the Rite of Committal at the crematorium or cemetery. These rites offer prayers for your loved one and comfort for the bereaved, grounded in the hope of resurrection.

At Eternal Horizon, we coordinate with Catholic parishes across Singapore to arrange the Funeral Mass. We understand the requirements of the Catholic Archdiocese of Singapore and ensure that all liturgical elements — from the pall that covers the casket to the placement of the Easter candle — are handled with reverence and precision.

What's Included in Our Catholic Funeral Package

Our Catholic funeral package includes first-call collection, cremation or burial permits, premium casket with viewing panel, professional embalming, floral arrangements, and a 43-seater bus for mourners. We also coordinate the church mass trip on the funeral day — transporting the casket from the parlour to the church for Mass, then onward to Mandai Crematorium.

For void deck setups, we provide professional tentage with VIP decor, mobile toilet, and refrigerator. For parlour setups at Sin Ming, families enjoy air-conditioned comfort with 24-hour access and overnight stay. The church mass trip (additional S$200) covers the extra transportation and manpower for the church-to-crematorium journey.

  • First-call collection — within 1 hour, 24/7
  • Funeral Mass coordination — with your parish and priest
  • Church mass trip — parlour to church to Mandai Crematorium
  • Funeral pall provided for the casket during Mass
  • Premium casket with viewing panel
  • Professional embalming by our NEA Licensed Senior Embalmer
  • 43-seater bus for mourners
  • Rite of Committal coordinated at Mandai Crematorium

Catholic Funeral Mass and Church Coordination

The Funeral Mass (Requiem Mass) is a central part of Catholic funeral rites. We coordinate with your parish to schedule the Mass on the funeral day. Our team handles the logistics of transporting your loved one from the wake venue to the church, and then from the church to Mandai Crematorium for the Rite of Committal.

We also assist with selecting scripture readings, hymns, and other liturgical elements in coordination with your parish priest. Our team ensures that the casket is prepared with the funeral pall and that all Catholic traditions are observed throughout the service.
