The Funeral Ministry provides hope for those who are grieving the loss of a loved one. We endeavor to be a source of love, comfort, encouragement, and support as the bereaved journeys from mourning to joy. Serving in this important ministry truly allows you to let God’s grace flow through you to others in need. If you are available mid-day on weekdays – even occasionally – we invite you to prayerfully consider joining the Funeral Ministry in some capacity.
