Funerals

Anglican Funerals in our chaplaincy

Losing a loved one is one of life’s most difficult experiences, and we are here to support you during this time. Our chaplaincy is honoured to assist you in saying goodbye and commending your loved one to God.

Funerals may take place either as a small, quiet ceremony at a local crematorium or in one of the churches. We usually contact you beforehand to learn more about the person who has died and to understand your wishes for the service.

We work closely with you and your funeral director to plan the content of the service. Following the Anglican funeral service in English, a typical service may include:

• A eulogy

• Hymns

• Prayers and Bible readings

• An address

• The commendation, committal, and blessing

We understand this is a very emotional time, and our chaplain will pray with and for you, offering support and comfort throughout. While our chaplain works part-time, they will do their best to accommodate your preferred timing.

How much does it cost? Please see our fees page for cost and payment details.
