Our clergy team is here to assist your family with funeral or memorial services. This sacred opportunity allows us to honor the life of the deceased, offer comfort to those who mourn, and glorify God by proclaiming the hope and resurrection found in Jesus Christ during this time of sorrow.

In Christ, death is a defeated enemy and has in fact become the gateway to everlasting life. As St. Paul reminded the Church at Corinth:

“‘Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?’ The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

And so, the burial of a Christian is an occasion of both sorrow and joy—our sorrow in the face of death, and our joy in Jesus’ promise of the resurrection of the body and the life everlasting. As the burial liturgy proclaims, “life is changed, not ended; and when our mortal body lies in death, there is prepared for us a dwelling place eternal in the heavens.”
