It's Your Funeral

Choices and Notes

The purpose of the church is to bring people to everlasting life by developing their relationship with God the Creator, Jesus the Christ, and the Holy Spirit in this world. Christians do not fear death, but it is an unfortunate truth that those we leave behind must make decisions about our earthly remains. A form such as this one will assist them during their time of grief.
