Funerals are central to the rhythm of church life. They are a rare opportunity to worship and display profound hope. But they are also times of deep grief, and few people are fully prepared to handle the details of a funeral amid the emotions of that sensitive time. These forms and documents will help your church plan funerals with, for, and alongside of the church family. Here you will also find guidelines for the funeral of a non-Christian. Use these policies to cover all the details, to mourn with those who mourn, and—most importantly—to honor God in the funeral service.
