Columbarium Memorial Garden Pavers

As part of our Columbarium project, a Memorial Garden will be constructed as a place for prayer and reflection.  The ground of the garden will be laid with commemorative pavers.  These pavers can serve to memorialize a loved one, honor someone special, or recognize a special event such as a wedding or anniversary. All parishioners are welcome to purchase a paver.

Initially, 300 commemorative pavers will be placed around a flagpole that will be the centerpiece of the Memorial Garden. Space for an additional 500 pavers will be allocated for future memorials.

The cost of each paver is $150. To place your order, please follow the steps below. Make sure you complete both steps.

Step 1

To order your paver, visit Polar Engraving’s website below. There you will enter the inscription information for your paver.

Step 2

To make the payment for your paver, go to St. Benedict’s donation page.

St. Benedict Columbarium Niches

The St. Benedict Columbarium and Memorial Garden will be a sacred resting place on holy ground for cremated human remains with the same dignity of a cemetery.  A place for our loved ones to rest until our Lord comes again, a place at home in our beloved community and Church.  Our columbarium offers a very peaceful place for you to come and pray and ask God to intercede for your loved one.  The opportunity is here for you to purchase one of a limited number of niches in the Columbarium. 

The parish columbarium offers these benefits:

Perpetual Care
The Code of Canon Law requires the Catholic Church to perpetually maintain its places of burial.  Hence, care will always be assured.

Security
Proximity on well-lighted Church grounds assures optimum security.

Convenience
With your final resting place only a few feet away from the Church, your family and friends attending Mass will be able to visit the columbarium which is a brief walk away.

Serenity
Our columbarium design fits perfectly into existing space, offering a serene, peaceful environment for meditation and quiet reflection.
