Marriage

If you are planning an upcoming wedding and would like to have the ceremony performed at Crown of Glory please contact the church office to reserve your special day. Crown of Glory also has a Wedding Ministry Team to help coordinate your wedding day.

A wedding coordinator meets with a couple 3 to 4 months prior to the wedding for a consultation. They give a tour of the church, go over worksheets, review church policies and discuss rehearsal set-up and timing. The wedding coordinator is then present for the rehearsal to welcome everyone; begin the rehearsal in prayer; direct the rehearsal; and answer any questions. The wedding coordinator is also available on the wedding day to make sure everything goes smoothly.

Funerals

The passing of a loved one can be a difficult time. Crown of Glory has formed a Funeral Ministry Team to help you take care of the planning and preparation of the funeral service.

The Funeral Support Team’s mission is to extend caring hospitality to grieving friends and family of the deceased. The funeral team provides and serves a luncheon after funerals at the church. The funeral team is comprised of a rotating kitchen staff (3-5 people per event) and food providers (usually dessert). Crown of Glory has had only one to three funerals in the past years, so a member of this team would probably only work one funeral a year.
