When your loved one dies, please contact the church office at 919-846-2212 to let a staff member know. One of the pastors will contact you to see how we might be of support. If you would like to have the funeral/memorial service at Soapstone UMC, we will meet with you and determine a date and time, based on staff and sanctuary availability. If the deceased is a church member or if the service is to be held at Soapstone, the office will send an email notice to the congregation.
The Soapstone Cemetery is located at the chapel site on Old Creedmoor Road and is overseen by the SUMC Trustees. Our Funeral/Memorial Service Planning Handbook is available at this link.
