A funeral marks the close of a human life on earth. As well as being a time to say goodbye to our loved ones and express our grief, it is also the opportunity for friends and family to celebrate and give thanks for the life that has ended and commend the person into God’s keeping.
We consider it an honour and an privilege to support people through this difficult time.
To arrange a funeral you will need to appoint a funeral director and they will be able to liaise with our ministry team on your behalf to agree the date and time of the funeral. Arrangements can then be made to visit you to discuss the service itself. If you have any questions please contact the parish office by sending an e-mail to office@stjohns-hedgeend.org.uk, phoning 01489 790048 or using our online contact form.
Further information about funerals is available on the Church of England website.
