BEREAVEMENT MINISTRY

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Revelation 21:4

LOVE & COMPASSION

The purpose of the Bereavement Ministry is to minister to those in the church who have lost a love one.  We extend our love and compassion with open arms to make that family feel loved.  We also offer hope and healing to those who are mourning the loss of a love one, or mourning a loved one who is in the state of transitioning to the other side. 

 

We do this by first lifting that person up in prayer that we may be guided by the Holy Spirit.  We assist at the repast with food or whatever else is needed during that time.  We also offer one on one counseling with the intent to keep everything 100% confidential.  We often times also give words of comfort, bring meals to your home, and give gifts to help console the loss of your love one.
