Welcome to the Anglican Churches of Quinte West
One vibrant Christian community, three unique congregations stretching from the
Bay of Quinte up the beautiful Trent-Severn Waterway.
We seek to know Christ and make Christ known in our everyday lives.
Funerals or Memorial Services
Our Parish extends its deepest sympathy and support to all grieving people. We warmly welcome the use of our churches for funerals or memorial services, not only for our Parish family but also for the wider community. The Anglican Churches of Quinte West are here to serve as a resource during times of loss.
Please be aware that there is a fee for the priest to officiate at the funeral, and we strive to make each service a reflection of the character and values of the deceased and their family. While every service will be Anglican, there are various ways to personalize and make it special.
We also offer the option (at a per-person cost) of a reception or lunch in the parish hall following the service. Our local funeral homes are excellent sources of assistance and information regarding costs, and we work closely with them.
St. George’s Cemetery in Trenton and Holy Trinity Cemetery in Frankford are both available for parishioners' burials. For more information, including costs, please scroll down the page.
