Funerals

If you or a loved one are in need of pastoral care please reach out to us. We will do our best to walk with you and your family. Fredsville works with a number of funeral homes across the Cedar Valley to care for families. Together we can help you plan a service that will honor your loved one and care for your family as you grieve. The Fredsville Cemetery serves members of the Fredsville Lutheran Church. For inquiries about cemetery information or available plots please contact the Fredsville Lutheran Church office.

At a person’s death, the church shares the grief of those who mourn and remembers the brevity of life on earth. At the funeral we give voice to sorrow, thank God for our loved one, and entrust this companion of ours into the hands of God. Trusting in God’s promise in baptism that we are claimed by Christ forever, we rest in the sure hope of the resurrection. When the church gathers to mark the end of life, Christ crucified and risen is the witness of worship, the strength of mutual consolation, and the hope of healing.
