The family is the main concern during this time of bereavement and space will be limited. We have to ensure the family is able to attend the service, so there is a possibility of some friends not being admitted. However, the service will be LIVE-STREAMED.

God saw him getting tired, a cure not meant to be, so He put His arms around him and whispered “Come to Me.”
