Funerals and Memorials

One World Ministers aim to help families create a meaningful Funeral Ceremony so people can be comforted by each other through the shared love they have for the deceased. Many ministers can offer support for families in funeral planning, end of life plans and more.

The Ceremony

One World Ministers aim to help families create a meaningful Funeral Ceremony so people can be comforted by each other through the shared love they have for the deceased.

There is no set formula for a One World Interfaith service and each ceremony will be unique. We can support you in meeting the needs and beliefs of the deceased, together with those of family members and friends.

Regardless of belief or faith we believe the funeral offers an important opportunity to honour the deceased, share memories and acknowledge that, even in the face of death, love is eternal and never fades. 

How we work with you

Together with the family, the Minister will create a service which is sensitive to the beliefs of all, and which will provide comfort and healing at a time of great sadness.

We can conduct funeral services at the funeral home, crematorium or at a venue of your choice including at a wake or at the graveside.

What people said

Funeral Ceremonies

"I never got to thank you for the funeral ceremony you did for my stepdad Mick. I just wanted to thank you so much. Everyone said how well it went and that was down to you and how you delivered it. It was really touching how you spoke and it gave us great comfort giving Mick what he has asked for. Thank you"
Jennifer

"When our Minister conducted my father in law's funeral she was totally committed to our family's needs and wants, when both preparing for and delivering the service. She is a natural, full of empathy and respect for the grieving relatives."
Juliet

Funeral Planning

"My husband and I were recently guided gently through the somewhat tricky task of planning our own funeral arrangements. We took our time thinking and talking everything through with her and there was no pressure whatsoever to complete the process until we were ready. The resulting peace of mind was quite overwhelming and I would encourage anyone to make this journey with a Minister like ours so that a potentially difficult time in the future can be made a lot easier for everyone."
