The Sacramento Japanese United Methodist Church would like to extend our heartfelt sympathy and condolences in the loss of your loved one. We know this is not an easy time for your family, and yet, there are often so many things that need to be taken care of after the loss of a family member.

Please feel free to ask any questions as you begin planning the service for your loved one. We are here to help you, support you, pray for you, and grieve with you during this difficult time. May God bless you with the comfort and strength that you need to handle the many details you are facing in the midst of your grief and loss. God promises to be with you always and to be your anchor and rock. Our greatest promise in the Bible is that we will be with God in heaven forever through our repentance and faith in Jesus Christ and his death on the cross as payment for our sins. That is our sure hope for the future.

If you have spiritual questions or desire spiritual comfort, please do not hesitate to contact one of our pastors. They will be honored to meet with you for spiritual counseling and to listen, pray, and read scriptures together. Your church family is also here for you and your family to help in any way we can.

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.”

John 3:16, NRSV
