TRINITY
UNITED CHURCH GRIMSBY
Whoever you are, whoever you love, you are welcome here.
Life Stages
Funerals
Trinity would like to support you at the death, or impending death, of your loved one. Our staff is on call to support you twenty-four hours a day. If it would be helpful, we can connect you with someone who has had a similar experience.
Most funeral arrangements are made by the family. They will contact the funeral home of their choice, who, in turn, will contact Trinity’s minister; or you may call the minister personally. The family and minister will meet to discuss details for the funeral service, which may be conducted at Trinity or at the funeral home chapel.
Trinity willingly offers the same pastoral care to the community at large as it does for its own members and adherents. This pastoral service is free.
Funeral Flat Rate: $1100.00 [Negotiable depending on requirements.]
The honorarium noted above is included with the payment to the funeral home.
Reception – Should you desire a reception following the service, this can be provided by Trinity folk at a per-person cost for coffee and squares; or for sandwiches, coffee, and squares. Vegetable, fruit and/or cheese trays can be provided at an extra cost.
Trinity's Rose Garden – The Scattering of Ashes
The Rose Garden is available to all members of the United Church of Canada, their immediate family members and adherents, and supportive participants and their families. If there is a question of the status of an individual who wishes to use the Rose Garden, the Minister and the Board of Trustees will be consulted.
There is no charge for the scattering of ashes. A record of all sprinkling of ashes will be kept at Trinity. Contact the Minister to make arrangements.
Plaques honouring the deceased will be affixed to a granite monument located in the Rose Garden. Markings include first name, middle name (optional), family name, date of birth, and date of death. Plaques will be ordered through Trinity, and paid in advance.
