Funerals

A funeral marks the close of a human life on earth. It is the opportunity for friends and family to express their grief, to give thanks for the life which has now completed its journey in this world and to commend the person into God's keeping.

Arranging the funeral service of a loved one can be a difficult and painful process. At Euxton Parish Church, we work with the local funeral directors to help make this time as easy as possible, as well as providing any future support you may need during your bereavement.

Funerals are generally arranged through the funeral directors so if you want a funeral in Euxton Parish Church, or would like the Vicar to take the funeral service at a crematorium or cemetery, please let them know your preference. Working together the Vicar and the funeral directors will ensure that you get the funeral you want to help you say 'goodbye' to your loved one.

It is also possible to inter the cremated remains in our Garden of Remembrance. We also have a Book of Remembrance in which the names of the departed can be inscribed.

If you would like to talk over any issues surrounding the loss of a loved one, we will arrange for someone to visit you.  Please contact us here.

For more information about our graveyard regulations, please see this diocesan document.

Planning your Visit

New Here?

Hi there! We're delighted to welcome you to Euxton Parish Church!
We're a friendly church at the heart of the local community, wherever you are on your faith journey.

We have three services on Sunday and one on Wednesday, as well as groups, lunches, walks, and coffee mornings running throughout the week.

We also regularly run short courses, where you can find out more about the Christian faith (these are advertised nearer the time).

Children are welcome at all of our services, though the All-Age Sunday service is more aimed towards children and families. Early Birds is our term-time toddler / pre-schooler service. We also run a Youth Group for children in Years 6 – 10.
