Funerals — Tenterden Unitarians

Traditionally churches and other religious bodies have provided services to mark significant occasions in our lives. But now many people who have no religious affiliations either accept formalities which are meaningless to them or forgo such ceremonial celebrations altogether. This need not happen.

Unitarian Celebrants are free and yet also obliged to try to meet the individual needs of people whether or not they belong to Unitarian congregations. As such, Unitarian Funeral Celebrants are more than willing to adapt ceremonies to meet particular needs by incorporating words and music important to those involved, or helping to create, and sometimes even conduct, their own form of ceremony or celebration.

Whether at a crematorium, place of worship, home or graveside, Unitarian ministers are concerned primarily with the needs and wishes of the bereaved, and seek to reflect the life and beliefs of the deceased in a personal way.

If you think that a Unitarian ceremony may best serve you on one of these highly personal occasions, please get in touch with our Secretary, David Wood by email at dcdownunder@gmail.com or phone or text to 07583 219082.
