As Christians, when someone dies, we are still sad, but our sadness is tinged with the sure and certain hope of the resurrection. As Jesus was raised from the dead, so each of us will be raised bodily from the dead when Jesus returns in his glory. A Church of England funeral service expresses this faith and can be made especially appropriate to the person who has died in a number of ways. You are welcome to ask for a Church of England funeral service regardless of your beliefs or those of the person who has died.
