It is a sad truth that death touches all our lives at some time.

Arranging a funeral may be the most difficult thing that people do, and the Anglican Church is here to help you through the process.
 
Usually the funeral director will contact the church on your behalf, however you may wish to discuss the details of a funeral with someone from the church, (email: chaplain@stbarnabas-cyprus.com), and also perhaps ask what pastoral care is available.
 
You can be assured that your needs will be discussed with sensitivity.

Funerals are generally arranged more quickly in Cyprus than in the UK. Most funerals are conducted at the graveside, whether in the British cemetery at Kolossi/Erimi or in a village cemetery, (there is one in Pissouri). Some families prefer a service to be held in St Barnabas’ Church, Limassol, followed by interment, and either of these is possible. The British cemetery is an independent charitable trust which allows the interment of British passport holders and their spouses.
 
As yet, no crematorium has been built in Cyprus, so cremation can only be done at present by transporting a coffin to another country.
 
Whatever your needs, we will try to accommodate them. For more information, please go to the St Barnabas’ Funerals page here.
