End-of-Life Planning Resources


During this time of COVID-19, many people are thinking about their own end-of-life plans. This page includes a link to the church’s Life Crisis Form that will give Rev. Karen Bush some basic information to help you and your loved ones in the time of crisis. It also includes resources for you to use to make your end-of-life wishes known to loved ones as well as information regarding final arrangements.

This certainly is not a comprehensive list, but it will help you to start—or continue—to get your wishes down in writing and to have important conversations with loved ones.

If you have questions that are specific to your situation, you may wish to contact your physician or lawyer, as appropriate.

Finally, if you have materials that you think would be useful to add to this website, please let Rev. Karen Bush know.

Life Crisis Form

The Life Crisis Form is specific to our church. We encourage you to complete this form so that Reverend Karen Bush will have information in the event of an emergency. If you prefer to print out a blank copy of this form and fill it out, please feel free to do so and then return it to the Minister.
