New Certified Celebrant Training scheduled--attention Canadians!

We are offering a funeral Celebrant training for Canadian participants June 1-3 on Zoom. Since we have several in-person trainings scheduled in the states, we wanted to create an opportunity for our northern neighbors to have another chance at training.

So, Canadians have first choice and have a deadline of May 17th to sign up. We are also taking wait list names for people in the states who wish to attend and will fill after the deadline closes.

Visit www.InSightBooks.com for more information.

Thank a Funeral Director

The Day the World Tilted

The Day the World Tilted

Throughout history, society has marked moments in time when life changed suddenly and completely. Those dates are seared into our memories and we look back to “before” and “after”, what we lost and, perhaps, what we gained.

Funerals Together from Afar

Funerals Together from Afar

Death happens regardless of our time and space and situation. If you are faced with the unthinkable loss of losing a loved one during this unique and scary time, please know that funeral professionals are there for you. They will work with you to make the right decisions for your family.

03/30/2020

To respond to the current need to adapt our funeral services to the unprecedented time and to embrace virtual services or small group experiences, InSight and our Celebrant community have put together a resource book, Ceremonies to Celebrate from Afar: A Resource for Challenging Times. It includes ideas, suggestions, ceremonies, opening and closings, and graveside services.

We put this together with the hope it will provide guidance and assistance for funeral professionals as they serve their families.

If you are involved in helping families navigate planning a funeral in this challenging time, email InSight for your copy of this new resource at no cost.
