Funerals in the Episcopal Church follow an Easter liturgy. They find all meaning in the resurrection of Christ. Because Jesus was raised from the dead, we too, shall be raised. The liturgy, therefore, is characterized by joy, in the certainty that “neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
St. Paul’s Episcopal Church is recognized throughout Manhattan for its beautiful funeral liturgies. We are pleased to offer burial for members and non-members alike. We are able to work with or without a funeral home to plan church-based, graveside, or columbarium services.
