On Tuesday 14th December, Lines Bannister Funeral Directors of Ascot invited clients into their funeral homes to attend their Christmas tree blessing service. The service was being held in memory of those who had lost someone throughout the past year.
The blessing was led by Reverend Rosie Webb (the helping Reverend) at All Saints Church, Ascot. Clients who attended the service were invited to place personal messages and memory cards onto the tree.
Reverend Webb commented “It was a pleasure to be asked to bless the Christmas tree at Lines Bannister Funeral Directors. I am certain that the simple act of placing the names of loved ones onto their Christmas tree will help give bereaved families comfort this Christmas.”
The team at Lines Bannister including Funeral Co-ordinator Sylvia Chambers concluded “It was a pleasure to be able to invite our families back into our funeral home to attend our blessing service and place their memorial cards onto our tree. At this time of year, it is important to remember the loved ones whom we have lost, and I was delighted to be able to organise this special service for our many families”.
