On the 100th anniversary of the original Chapel's completion, the Memorial Garden was consecrated. The garden and its surrounding woodland areas provide a quiet offroad place for reflection and meditation, as well as a place for placement of the remains of parishioners and chapel friends who have died and chosen a more natural setting for burial. The names of the departed are etched into natural stones that sit along unpaved paths that circle the garden lawn and wind around the woodland area. The garden not only serves as a space of memory, but as a beautiful site for celebrations of baptism and marriage. Volunteer "Holy Weeders" maintain it to ensure that its cultivated flower beds and selective shrubs and trees will flower in due season and provide a welcoming place for quiet reflection and meditation. The garden is open to the public.
