The Vigil Garden Committee
Understanding vigil
to be a period of devotion on the eve of a
fesival, the memorial garden at Christ Church has come to be called the
Vigil Garden. Located in the courtyard between the Church and the
Wheeler Education Building, this lovely garden is designed for the
committal of the cremated remains of baptized members of the Church (or
members of their family) who, upon their death, wish for their mortal
bodies to rest near the place where the great events of the Christian
Life -- Baptism, Confirmation, Marriage, the regular worship of God --
have taken place. The Vigil Garden Committee is entrusted with
provision for maintenance and continuing upkeep of the garden with
funding provided by usage fees.
