• You will keep the office running as the steady center — coordinating office duties, calls, and details so that all team members are free to be fully present with families. This operations excellence creates the space for ministry to happen.
• You will build real knowledge of cemeteryoperations — not just to answer questions, butguide families with confidence through the Order of Christian Funerals and the choices in front of them, at a moment when they may not know what to ask.
