Funerals

If you have come to this page because you are preparing for the end of your life or a family member has died, our prayers are with you as you face this time of great sorrow.

The death of a member of the church should be reported to the clergy of the parish as soon as possible (church office: 703-938-6521). The pastoral care emergency line (703-216-1864) may be used at any hour to reach the clergy on call.

The Rector and staff are ready to be of assistance and can be with the family at the funeral home if our presence is desired. The clergy should be consulted before a date and time is set for the funeral or memorial service.

Holy Comforter Columbarium

Holy Comforter’s Columbarium, located adjacent to the Chapel near the front driveway, is available for the direct interment of ashes.

This may be reserved prior to or at the time of death at a cost of $500. Those interred in the Columbarium are remembered with a brass plaque that is ordered by the church. Checks may be made payable to “Holy Comforter Columbarium.”
