Multi-Faith Funerals in Perth
Once traditional Christian ceremonies were the norm for funerals in Perth, however with an increasingly multicultural society in modern Australia, we’re starting to see changes in what is expected from a funeral service.
Apart from the rise in non-Christian beliefs, such as Islam, Hinduism and Sikhism, many people now come from a diverse background with several different faiths and belief systems in their lives. This means that when it comes to paying tribute to them, a single faith ceremony might not be representative of their religious background.
Multi-faith funerals in Perth incorporate elements of different religions and belief systems into the service.
Why choose a multi-faith funeral in Perth?
When arranging a funeral, the beliefs of the person who has died are usually the main factor in deciding whether or not to have a religious service. If they were devout followers of a specific religion or branch of a religion, they would probably wish to be buried or cremated in accordance with those traditions.
However, if that person was from a diverse background, they may have grown up with two or more religions shaping their beliefs. You could combine religous traditions in a multi-faith service to pay tribute to both important cultural and spiritual influences.
Some people describe themselves as spiritual, and believe in faith and a higher power without necessarily following strict religious teachings. You could choose readings and traditions from many different religions, for example Buddhism, Paganism and Christianity.
With a multi-faith funeral, you can combine any readings, prayers or traditions to create a unique service that recognises all the spiritual influences in a person’s life.
