You, and your family and friends, are invited to a service of thanksgiving and remembrance for loved ones who have died and whose funeral services took place in the parish or at our local crematorium. The service will take place at St Mary’s Church on Sunday 11 June at 4pm and will last no longer than an hour. Our main purpose is to give thanks to God for the lives of those who have died, and to remember in prayer those who have been bereaved, that God might continue to comfort them. Many who have come to previous bereavement services have found them to be helpful.

During the service there will be an opportunity to remember those who have
died. You are also invited, if you would like to do so, to bring a single flower in
memory of your loved one. There will be light refreshments available after the
service.
