The Compassion Ministry includes volunteers who coordinate and serve receptions after funerals and memorials. They prepare the serving and dining tables, serve the food, and clean the kitchen and dining areas afterwards. They also maintain an adequate inventory of supplies for these receptions.
Every year in November, the Compassion Ministry plans a Day of Remembering for all those who have experienced the death of a loved one during the past year. A Memorial Book containing information about those to be remembered is placed in the Gathering Place of the church to be displayed during the month of November.
