Funerals
In times of loss, the love of God and the support of the church family provide comfort, hope, and peace. At Lifecentre Church, we are honoured to walk alongside members and regular attenders (twice monthly) as they remember and celebrate the life of a loved one while proclaiming the hope found in Jesus Christ.
Christian Funerals
In times of loss, the love of God and the support of the church family provide comfort, hope, and peace. At Lifecentre Church, we are honoured to walk alongside families as they remember and celebrate the life of a loved one while proclaiming the hope found in Jesus Christ.
A Christian funeral is a service of remembrance, thanksgiving, and worship. While we grieve the loss of those we love, we do not grieve without hope, for our confidence rests in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ (1 Thessalonians 4:13–14).
Our desire is to honour the life of the deceased, care for those who are grieving, and point everyone present to the hope of the gospel, in Christ alone.
Allow us to express our deepest condolences to you and your family. When it comes to Pastoral support, we are here. Please visit our team page to contact one of our Pastors directly.
When it comes to utilizing a Lifecentre Location or Pastor for a Celebration of Life service, please know, due to the size of Lifecentre, this is a service we only provide to members at this time.
If there is anything else we can do, please let us know how we can minister along side of you in this season.
