Funerals

The death of a loved one is a difficult reality to bear. Saint John’s is honored to assist you and your family in these difficult times. Whether or not your loved one was a member of Saint John’s, we can help you create an appropriate funeral or memorial service. 
The Christian funeral service is a celebration of our faith in Jesus’ Resurrection and his victory over death. Such a service provides an opportunity to remember our loved ones in God’s presence, giving thanks for their lives. Grief is not un-Christian, but rather a reminder of the bonds of love that bind us to one another, even beyond the gates of death.
 

Whether you need assistance with a funeral, memorial, inurnment in Saint John’s columbarium, or graveside service, please contact the church office at 619.422.4141 to discuss funeral guidelines and schedule an appointment. 
A planning guide can be found HERE. 

​
Complete information about our columbarium— a memorial garden with niches for cremated remains — is available HERE.

The parish hall may be used for a reception after the service. Please discuss this with the parish secretary when you call about funeral arrangements. Usage guidelines can be found HERE. 
​

Also, those of us who are alive can pre-plan our own memorial service or funeral. Such efforts are a blessing to the family who is left behind when we die. A planning guide can be found HERE.
