Whatever the age an individual is, when he or she passes those who
loved that particular person will experience grief. Traditionally, the funerals
were being held in a church and were attended by entire communities and large
extended families. The church minister along with the priest, rabbi or pastor
would lead the services. Today, there are still numerous funerals that follow
this more traditional way of bidding adieu.
Mobility, loss of the traditional large family unit and other
factors has contributed in changing in how we perceive and do things. Numerous
communities today have substantial populations who do not attend or are a part
of the church. It has been estimated that in some communities, the percentage
or people who are not associated with the church is as high as 50%.
So we do turn to at the time when the individual passes by, if we
have no church affiliation. Numerous families have used the services of Clergy
even though they did not know one or have any such connection to the church.
Sometimes that left them very much unsettled and very many unsatisfactory
feelings after the funeral services gets over as it is being said by
individuals who are professionals at Funeral Celebrant Auckland.
It is the common belief that any tributes whatever form it takes
needs to be representative of the particular individual who has passed by, and
the life that they lived if it is to be respectful and meaningful and healing
for those who are left to walk grief’s journey as being said by individuals
providing Funeral Celebrant Auckland.
If a professed atheist for example passes by and his funeral
services is being conducted in a church or salvation message is part of the
service, then it can become an insult to the family and those friends who knew and loved that person.
Celebrants provide personalized alternative funeral services for the
families who do not want to have traditional religious services being performed
by a clergy. The role of the celebrant is to allow the mourners in connecting
with the loved ones in a personal way by providing a funeral service that
reflects the personality and the life style of the deceased.
Numerous individuals have
shared with professionals that they are “spiritual” but they are not religious.
No such families should have to have their final act of love for their deceased
loved one is a religious service if that is not who that person was just
because that is all that is being available to the family.
It is to be noted that there are different names we can put to the
ceremony where we pay tribute to that particular person: funeral along with
memorial, celebration of life. But whatever we name it and however it is done,
grief will be part of it.
