Benefits of a Columbarium
- Spiritual Site for Final Resting - The principal benefit a columbarium affords church members and their families is the opportunity to select their final resting place in the shadow of the church which has been central to their lives, a sacred site of beauty and dignity where their loved ones can visit and meditate at any time they visit the church.
- Simplicity of Planning - The purchase of a columbarium niche eliminates the pressures of choosing a burial site, casket, vault and monument; also, there is no need to plan for interment and memorial services at different locations and times.
- Substantial Financial Savings - With the columbarium, significant costs are limited to cremation, the niche and the obituary.
