Memorial Services
When someone you love dies, we believe it is important to have a time to mourn your loss, remember his/her life and offer his/her life and all of our lives into God's eternal care and keeping. Fauntleroy Church is a meaningful place to hold such a memorial service for non-members as well for members of our church.
You need to contact our Office Manager, Jackie Gould, 206-932-5600 to begin to make arrangements.
David Kratz, our Senior Pastor, meets with the family, listens to the story of the person's life and puts together appropriate scriptures readings, reflections and prayers. He knows it is a privilege to serve you in these difficult times. Times for personal story telling and remembrances can be part of the service.
Our Music Director, Bronwyn Edwards Cryer, has a wide repertoire of musical knowledge to provide music appropriate for the occasion, using the piano and/or organ. Soloists can be arranged if needed.
Many families would like to have a less formal time to meet friends and reunite with family following the worship service. Our Fellowship Hall provides a place where you can meet, eat and perhaps look over some photographs of the one whose life you are celebrating. If you and your family wish to have such a reception, Jackie will connect you to a member of our Fellowship Committee to arange the details. We supply coffee, tea, punch, tables, chairs and table clothes. If you wish to have more substantial refreshment, we can connect you to local caterers to serve your needs.
Sometimes families provide their own program/bulletin for the service. Or, you can work with our Office Manager to have the church produce it.
Fees are based on the types of services you choose.
