The Prayer Garden
The Prayer Garden was once an infrequently used area of the church yard. In time, ideas came about on how to change the space to enhance its usefulness to church members and the general public. With the guiding help of members' thoughts and prayers, a landscape architect’s plan, and the monies received from memorial gifts and generous contributions, the transformation from multi-purpose church yard to Prayer Garden has taken place. A spacious courtyard surrounded by lush greenery incorporates a prayer labyrinth, memorial benches placed in honor of church members , and a dedicated space for remembering past church members and others by internment of cremains and placement of name plaques. The Prayer Garden is a place for rest, fellowship, prayer and reflection, and for remembering the wonderful people who have impacted our church and families and the God who has given us life in abundance.
