Funeral Requests At Mission

Mission Church desires to honor God, honor the deceased and support the grieving families with care and respect during this difficult time. To ensure funeral services run smoothly and reflect our values, the following policies and guidelines have been established. To help this event run as smoothly as possible, mutual understanding and agreement are required on both our parts. Any changes or special requests to this policy must be approved by the Operations Director. 

  • Funeral services at Mission may be scheduled Monday through Saturday, 10:00am – 12:00pm, subject to availability (one-hour visitation and one-hour memorial service). Funeral times are arranged to respect church programming and staff availability.
