Advent Funeral & Cremation Services - Falls Church
Serving Falls Church Families with Compassion and Care
After refining her innovative vision, our founder established Advent in 1995, aiming to revolutionize the funeral service industry by providing families with compassionate, responsive services. Her aspiration was to support the community with transparent advice and customizable options, allowing each family to honor their loved ones in ways that genuinely meet their needs. Decades later, our mission remains steadfast: to offer compassionate, professional, and truthful services to everyone who walks through our doors.
At Advent, we take the time to truly understand you, your family, and your lost loved one. This deep understanding allows us to craft services that are most meaningful and healing for you. Our facilities include a beautifully appointed chapel that offers a tranquil environment for services, and we are proud to have Spanish-speaking staff available to assist families for whom Spanish is a preferred language.
Serving the Falls Church, Virginia community, our location is conveniently situated to provide the same high level of care and respect as our original site. Whether you're planning a service or seeking guidance, our doors are open to help you navigate this important journey.
For added convenience, we also offer services at our second location in Lanham, Maryland.
