Funerals
The death of a loved one is a time to recall the miracle of life, to give thanks for the life of the deceased and to mourn the loss. We acknowledge the pain of death, console the bereaved, celebrate the life of the deceased, and offer thanks to God. As a resurrection people, we also declare the promise of hope from the United Church creed: “In life, in death, in life beyond death, God is with us. We are not alone.”
Our minister is available to conduct funerals for members of the congregation and the wider community in our building, at a funeral home or graveside.
If you have an immediate need to arrange a funeral please call 204.256.7002.

Book of Lives
The Book of Lives is a project of remembering and honouring the lives of people, who were connected in some way to UCiM, after they have died. Families may contribute a photo and biographical information for a page to remember their loved one. The Book is available for family, friends or visitors to browse through and learn from the stories.
Families are encouraged to prepare their submission soon after their loved one has died, but submissions are welcome at any time.
New entrants to the Book of Lives are also remembered in a special memorial time in worship, usually the closest Sunday to November 1 which is All Saints day, a time when the Church traditionally acknowledges the passing of our saints.
