Bereavement
Please contact us whenever you need to.
The clergy of the parish and members of our trained Bereavement Team are skilled and experienced in helping families to deal with the trauma of death and loss, At St. Martin’s, with our considerable musical and liturgical resources, we can help you to arrange an appropriate service – whether that is a Funeral or a Memorial Service.
We can, and want to, help before the point of death too – rather than being summoned after the event, we would much prefer to be called during times of serious illness when spiritual questions and anxieties can become particularly prominent in patients and their families.
Support before and at the time of death is what we should all want for ourselves and our loved ones. Often the thoughtful, prayerful company of a member of the clergy or a trained visitor can help to guide people through challenging and uncharted waters as their life, or the life of their loved-one, draws to a close.
