In our congregation, memorial and funeral services honor the person who has died and celebrate the life they lived. Services are planned by the minister and the bereaved family, and often include poetry, prayer or meditation, music, a eulogy, and time for those attending to share stories and memories.

Our ministers walk alongside families from the first conversation through the service itself, helping to shape a gathering that is personal, meaningful, and true to the life being remembered. Whether you are planning a service for a loved one or thinking ahead for yourself, we are here to help.

Pre-Planning Your Memorial Service

One of the most meaningful gifts you can give your loved ones is a clear expression of your wishes. Our Pre-Planning Memorial Service Form invites you to document your preferences for readings, music, and participants, identify family contacts, and indicate your interest in a Memorial Garden plaque or interment. Complete the form here.

The Memorial Garden

The Memorial Garden is a quiet and beautiful place on our grounds where members, friends, and loved ones can be remembered with a bronze memorial plaque. Ashes may also be interred in the garden at the family’s request. Download the Memorial Garden Brochure for details on plaques, interment, and costs.
