The treasured son and brother lost his battle with cancer on Sunday at children's hospice Bear Cottage at Manly, after almost a year of treatment in Sydney with family by his side.
The Ray family, parents Jeremy and Erin and their younger children Hannah and Connor, had hoped to bring Mitchell home to Dubbo for Christmas but his condition deteriorated in the week before his death.
About 500 seats will be available in the church.
The service will be followed by a private cremation.
The funeral is being organised by W Larcombe & Son.
