Need a Pastor?
About Us
Our seminary-trained, ordained clergical staff assists funeral directors and cemetery representatives to holistically meet the needs of their clients by ministering to grieving families and friends in their time of spiritual need. This is especially helpful for clients who are without a church home but desire services of a Christian minister to officiate the funeral in honor of the deceased and on behalf of the family.
Our Approach
We are deeply rooted in the Judeo-Christian faith and offer a distinctively Christian message. We focus of the gift of eternal life in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, our Savior. We emphasize the redemptive significance of the cross and the truth of His resurrection with exalted glory at the right hand of God in heaven. Pastoral care is respectfully provided in a gentle, caring manner.
Our Program
A personalized memorial document is developed upon consultation with the family (in person or via teleconference). The Eulogy is verbally delivered by the Pastor in clergical robe at the memorial service or viewing, along with a Christological sermon emphasizing God's forgiving grace and celebrating the immortal fellowship in the Kingdom of Heaven for those who trust in the Lord. Graveside prayer and comforting readings from Scripture are offered.
"God blessed us with every spiritual blessing in Christ." Eph 1:3
