​Funerals at St Bartholomew's Church

If you are reading this page it might be because a family or friend has recently died.   We are very sorry.   As a church we want to pray for you and help you to know the comfort that Jesus brings. At the bottom of this page is a short video which tells you more about that comfort.   To find out more general information about Church of England Funerals click here.

Arranging A Funeral
If you want to organise a funeral the first step is contact a firm of Funeral Directors.  Many of our funeral services are organised by S Webb & Son Ltd but other firms are available.  They will find out when the church can be used for a funeral and arrange a time and date that suits you.  They will also contact our Vicar to conduct the service. 

Memorial Services
Three times a year we hold a Memorial Service, usually 6pm on a Sunday evening.  Often there is one in February, one in June/July and one in October.  This gives an opportunity to come and remember your loved one, to give thanks for their life, to light a candle in their memory and to ask for God's peace.  Please Contact Us to find out when the next service is taking place.

Are you struggling with bereavement?
A useful resource is available on the 'At a Loss' website.  Use this link to find out more.
  It is a useful resource to direct grieving people who need support. 

Comfort During Sorrow
Jesus had a close friend, Lazarus, who died.  As Jesus talked to Lazarus's sisters he spoke words of amazing power, love and comfort.  Jesus gives hope in the face of death.

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.
