I am so sorry for your loss. I am praying God will give you an appropriate openning to speak the words on your heart. I am also praying those words will be well received. Perhaps the words they know are in your heart are why you were asked. God bless you as you serve Him!
Hang tough man. Don't cry for the loss, rejoice at the time you did have together.

Prayers to you and you family! God Bless

Prayers for your family, your nephew and you.
Sorry about your family's tragedy. I think you will just naturally find the right voice and tone with which to
conduct the service, because you are sensitive to your sister's viewpoint She knows your views
and still asked you to do the job. That tells you something about her expectations and needs.
You probably can't go wrong.

That's so sad, man, especially since you're doing the service, too. It really sounds like you're on the right track with the message. As someone similar to your sister religiously speaking, I think she'll deeply appreciate your efforts and will accept them in the loving spirit in which they were offered.

this is about supporting your sister in the loss of her son, not about your differences. You'll do fine..... you are doing it for the right reasons.

Keep it light if you have to, and honor her wishes.
You'll do the right thing, we have faith!!!!!!!!!
God bless and take care, and know you and your family are in our thoughts.

Sorry for your loss. I'm,praying that this will be a deciding moment for your sister's faith. Nothing like the death of a loved one to get you thinking about eternity.

Thoughts and prayers to you and your family. Your nephew's suffering is over and he indeed gets a seat at heaven's table for Jesus's birthday.
Array
You and your family will be in our prayers. Try to keep the service light and let it be a rememberance of his life more than spritual.
Brothers and sisters may differ theologically, but in family there is a shared heart.... speak... no... SING from that heart and you can't go wrong.
