Overview

Funerals call for sensitive, wise, and timely ministry. These brief, practical handouts provide instruction to help your congregation cope in times of loss. One article outlines how to educate the church about death before a crisis occurs. Another article discusses the finer points of arranging a funeral service. Other articles cover how to help a grieving friend and how to explain death to children. This download is helpful for pastors, church leaders, and the congregation — to pass out or to use in your next meeting.
