Funerals
You do not have to have been a regular church attender to have a funeral in church. Here at Coleshill Parish Church we take funerals of anyone in the parish who has died, unless an alternative service has been requested.
In the first instance you will make contact with a funeral director who will call us to arrange a date and time on your behalf. One of our ministers; either Nick or Becky, will arrange to meet with you. We will go through the service with you helping you to choose music and readings. If you would like us to give the eulogy (or tribute) we will ask you some questions about the life of your loved one.
We recognise that the funeral is only the beginning of a long journey so you are warmly invited to join us at our bereavement group, Seasons. Please click here for more information. You are also welcome to put flowers in church at any time you wish to do so in memory of your loved one.

On the first Sunday of November we have a service called Commemoration of the Departed. At this service we remember all who have died in the parish during the previous 2 years by reading out their names. If you would like to add other names you can do so by calling the vicarage during October. We invite the people who we've been in contact with for each funeral by sending a letter, but everyone is welcome to come along to the service.
