Have you ever noticed the memorial benches all around the Shrine? These benches serve the our visitors as a place to sit, pray, and reflect while walking our grounds no matter the season! We are honored to be able to help you to remember your loved ones, both living and deceased, in a special way. When purchased, your loved one’s name and a date will be engraved on a 3”x 8” plastic plaque and will be permanently attached to the backrest of the bench. The price for one bench is $995.00. Your donation will not only cover the cost of manufacturing and materials but will also provide upkeep of the bench for years to come. If you are interested in ordering a Memoial Bench, please visit our reception desk in the Welcome Center to get a form or e-mail:
Looking to the right and left of the altar at our Outdoor Chapel, you will find two memorials called the Trees of Life. Each tree’s “leaves” are constructed of brass plaques emblazoned with memorials dedicated to many loved ones, families, and friends. As the Shrine's oldest memorial, the Trees of Life have helped to support our ministries for many years and still continues today! For a donation of $300, we will install a custom leaf containing your intention on one of these memorials.

As you enter the Shrine Church, you may have noticed a number of bricks inscribed with names and dates. The installation of memorial bricks first began in 2003 upon the completion of our Shrine Church and still continue today! Memorial bricks help you honor your loved ones with a lasting memorial to their lives. For a donation for $175, your friend or family member’s name, as well as a date, will be engraved on a brick and then expertly installed at the entryway to the Church and will remind not only you, but others as well, of the impact that person made on your life and the life of the Shrine.
