Why Choose Christian End-of-Life Doula Training?

Christian End-of-Life Doula services differ from secular services. The Biblical answer to the question, Why do we die?, separates a Christian Doula from the secular. Christian service springs forth from the good news of the gospel and the hope of resurrection.


The Death & Resurrection Doula Training & Certification program goes beyond technical skills, embedding Christian values into every aspect of the learning journey. Participants receive guidance on practitioner care techniques and spiritual enrichment to address the emotional, physical, and spiritual needs of those facing life's end.

Important Ministry Documents

The mission of this ministry is to lead a movement reclaiming the Christian meaning and experience of death. 

There is a direct correlation between seeing death and the stability of our faith;  we can live out our faith in service to our neighbors in their time of greatest need.  


Jesus said, "There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends." (John 15:13)

Author of Surprised By Hope, N.T. Wright, says:

“This is a wonderful ministry, a gift to both Church & world. The hope of resurrection is so much more than a vague ‘afterlife’:  it is the reaffirmation, in God’s ultimate New Creation, of who we really are, body, mind, & spirit. The comfort of this promise reaches back into the darkest moments we humans can face. Thank God for those who bring this comfort where it is needed most.”
