Funerals

If someone close to you has died, please accept our deepest condolences. We know this is a painful and difficult time, and we want you to know that you are not alone. If we can support you in any way, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

A Church of England funeral can take place in a variety of settings—in church, at a graveside, in a churchyard, or at a crematorium. Whatever the setting, the message at the heart of the service is one of comfort and hope. While we mourn the loss of someone we love, we also look to the promise of life beyond death.

Every person is unique, and we will work with you to shape a funeral that reflects the life, personality, and values of your loved one. From the moment you contact us, through the planning and service itself, and in the days and weeks afterwards, we are here to walk alongside you with care, compassion, and prayerful support.

Our hope is that you will experience something of God’s loving presence as we remember and give thanks for the life of your loved one.

To speak with someone or to begin planning a funeral, please contact the Church Office or Rev. Steve Daughtery.

Planning your Visit

Welcome to Holy Trinity Bembridge!

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

8.00am

We meet at St Lukes Chapel for a quiet and traditional “said” service using the Book of Common Prayer.

10.30am

We meet at Holy Trinity Church for a more relaxed and modern language service using Common Worship with a mixture of traditional hymns and contemporary worship songs.

For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to ensure you are able to park nearby and find somewhere to sit before the service begins. When you arrive, you should be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team who will be wearing a Welcome lanyard.

The church is accessible to people with disabilities with a disabled access toilet, a Loop System and large print service sheets available. Please just ask one of the welcome team upon arrival if you need any help.

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits after the 10.30am service in the Cloisters. It is a great way to meet people and to find out more about us. You would be very welcome to join us.

What about my children?

Children’s Club, our Sunday School is available for children of 10 years and under every Sunday at our 10.30am service. Activities vary depending on the age but always include a friendly welcome, bible stories, music & craft.
