At St Michael’s, we understand that saying goodbye to a loved one is a deeply personal and emotional time. A funeral service in church offers a space of comfort, hope, and remembrance; a time to gather, reflect, and entrust a loved one into God’s care.
Whether you’re planning a funeral or a memorial service, we are here to support you. In conjunction with your chosen Funeral Director, we will help to shape a service that honours your loved one’s life and brings reassurance and hope to you, your family and friends.
Who can have a funeral at St Michael’s?
A church funeral is open to anyone, regardless of faith or church connection. You don’t need to be a regular worshipper, and we welcome all who seek a meaningful farewell in a sacred space.
What can I expect?
You’ll have the opportunity to choose music, readings, and prayers that reflect your loved one’s life. We will guide you through the practicalities, whether it’s liaising with a funeral director, considering burial or cremation, or simply finding the right words for a eulogy.
