Funeral planning is often a difficult task for a variety of reasons. One is grief—decisions can be especially challenging when one is weighed down by the nearness of death. Another is that the variety of funeral services practiced within society may lead to confusion as to how a funeral should be conducted. Faith hopes the brief booklet below will serve to explain and assist in the preparation of a funeral service.
This booklet serves as a summary of the policies and procedures for funerals at Faith Lutheran Church or performed by her pastor. It also serves as a simple workbook for funeral preparation and planning.
