Free, facilitated grief support group for families who have lost a loved one in the past 12 months. First Tuesday of each month, 6:30–7:30 p.m. at our Dallas office. No registration required. Light refreshments provided.

Annual veteran honor evening

Each November (around Veterans Day), we host an evening honoring the veterans we have been privileged to serve and their families. Includes a reading of names, taps, and flag presentation. Location: our Dallas chapel.

Quarterly pre-planning workshop

A 90-minute workshop walking through pre-need planning: documenting your wishes, understanding pre-funding options, Texas preneed trusts, and the forms your family will need. Free, includes a printed workbook. Quarterly schedule varies — email to be notified.

Continuing education for DFW clergy and chaplains

Twice yearly, we offer a breakfast-and-session program for Dallas–Fort Worth clergy, chaplains, and pastoral care staff: current Texas funeral law, cremation practice, multi-faith coordination updates, and Q&A. By invitation; email to be added to our clergy list.

Dia de los Muertos community observance

Each November 1-2, we partner with Hispanic congregations across the DFW metroplex to support Dia de los Muertos observances, including ofrendas assistance and communal memorials.
