MEMORIAL GARDEN

The Oakland Presbyterian Church

I am the Ressurection and the Life.
Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live.

A Place of Peace

Our Garden is our vibrant reminder of the beauty that awaits us in Paradise, a living symbol of the Resurrection, and a working out of the traditional ministry of the Church, providing dignified Christian burial of the cremated remains of our members and their families. This Sanctuary stands as a place for mediation, rest, and prayer, and a proclamation of our faith in the enduring love of Christ.

Cremated Remains are placed in-ground in a standard container provided by the Church. The burial site will be covered with an inscribed marker containing the name, year of birth, and year of death of the decedent. 

​

For family members buried elsewhere, we provide the option of a smaller, inscribed memorial marker.

 

Church members interested in utilizing our garden for family burial are encouraged to contact the office for more information.
