Notes for Memorial Services

St. Ann’s Academy hosts Funerals, Memorials and Celebrations of Life.

St. Ann’s Academy Interpretive Centre includes the chapel, a parlour, smaller room and Novitiate Garden. The St. Ann’s Academy Chapel was deconsecrated in 1974 and reopened in 1997, blessed by the interfaith community of Victoria. To rent this area for a service, please refer to the attached document “Interpretive Centre Rentals”

St. Ann’s Academy Auditorium has stained glass windows without religious symbols and accommodates slightly larger events. Please refer to the attached document “Auditorium Rentals’ if you wish to use this venue.

Organizing the Service
You may choose to organize and lead the service yourself. If you will be using an official of your own faith, please contact them directly and ensure that they can perform the service you desire at this location. If you wish to consult with a spiritual person regarding your event, please see the attached listing “Officiants for Marriages or Memorial Services”. If you wish to consult with a local funeral director, you may wish to contact one of the companies on the attached listing “Funeral Homes and Directors”.

We provide:

• Sound system, (CD, tape, and microphone) if requested in advance. The chapel does have an organ, however, arrangements for a musician must be made separately – see the attached document “Musicians”.
• A staff person to assist with your access.
• A lectern and small tables for use on the sanctuary / stage area.

Please let us know if you have any questions
