Please call 972.235.8385 to report the death of a loved one. There is an answering service available 24 hours a day.

There are two areas where services may be held:
   - Chapel which seats up to 100
   - Sanctuary which accommodates from 25 to 1300

Both areas have an organ and grand piano.

Members may request a certain member of the clergy to officiate, or a minister may be assigned according to availability.

Funeral or memorial services cannot usually be accommodated on Saturday or Sunday.

A musician will be available for the service.

Care for Grieving Families

FUMCR wishes to be of assistance to our members during this period of time. We offer one of the following as a means of caring for you and your family:

A complete meal delivered to the home of your choice on the day of the service or on the day prior to the service. (Up to 35 people.) This meal could also be served at the church if a space is available.

A reception in the Shawver Welcome Center following the service to include cookies and a cold and hot beverage, as well as all paper products. Servers are provided by the Caring Ministry group. The family may provide additional trays of food if prior arrangements are made.

I lift up my eyes to the hills - from where will my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Psalm 121: 1-2
