“Precious in the sight of the Lord Is the death of His saints.” Psalm 116:15
At New Chapel,
we believe that walking with families through grief is a sacred ministry
assignment.
We don’t get over our grief by
forgetting. Rather, we get through our grief by remembering. A funeral is more than a formality —
it's a holy moment where memory, honor, and Gospel clarity come together.
Losing a family member can be a challenging and
difficult time. We consider it a privilege to serve our New Chapel family and
provide help, support, compassion, and care when dealing with the death of a
family member.
We seek to help with the planning and officiating of funerals or
memorial services to provide personal care during your time of loss.
