Funerals

Funerals

The United Methodist denomination welcomes all in need of pastoral care and services. Central’s clergy offers counsel and spiritual guidance. Clergy in the United Methodist Church are free to conduct funerals for members of our community of faith and those outside our faith community. If you have questions about funerals or would like a private session with our clergy, you may call the church office at 248-681-0040.

Funerals can be held at either a funeral home or in one of our worship spaces. In addition to an honorarium for the clergyperson ($150-250) and the organist/keyboardist ($150-200), there may be some custodial or technical support costs. Usually, a family works with a funeral home to secure the clergyperson and sets the honorariums.
