Weddings at NSCBC
Congratulations on your engagement and upcoming wedding! We hope this season of life will be a rich experience as you prepare to join together in Christian marriage.
All couples seeking to be married at NSCBC must complete the Wedding Application. Applications should be submitted at least five months prior to the requested date. Additionally, couples must meet with one of NSCBC’s pastors for an interview, before the application will be approved. After your application has been approved and your deposit has been received, your date will be placed on the church calendar. Please note that your date is not secure until you have heard from the Office Administrator or Wedding Coordinator.
Funerals and Memorial Services
NSCBC holds space and provides resources as we process our grief and give praise to God even in our mourning.
A funeral service is held soon after death, and often involves a casket. It is a service of Christian worship, including songs, scripture readings, prayers, and a sermon. This service looks forward to eternal life rather than backward toward past events. It does not primarily focus on the achievements or failures of the deceased; rather, it calls us to proclaim the Good News of Jesus and his triumph over death, even as we celebrate the life and witness of the deceased.
A memorial service is held weeks or months after a death. With songs, scripture and prayers, emphasis is on the life of the deceased and for the community to give expression to their grief, gratitude, and remembrance of their earthly life.
I am the resurrection and the life, says the Lord.
Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die.
John 11:25-26
