Memory
Garden and Courtyard
The
Church has a small courtyard between the two sections of the
building
where a perennial garden
with fruit trees have been planted in memory of various former
members of our congregation. Perennial flowers and plants
especially, are welcome additions to this courtyard garden, a
place of peace and tranquility in the hustle of downtown. If
you would like to place a plant or shrub, or come in and plant
something yourself, please contact the Church office at: 522-9571
for further information.
Memorial Stones, and other Placements
Many
of our spectacular stained glass windows have been given as
memorials
to former church members,
and family members of current church members. In addition
various signs, plaques, hymnals, bibles, and musical instruments
have been gratefully accepted by the congregation in memory of
loved ones. If you would like to place a memorial to a
loved one, please contact: The Clerk, The Kirk Session, 2170
Albert Street, Regina, SK. S4P 2T9
Memorial Fund
Often,
money is donated in memory of individuals after a funeral. These funds are
administered by an eight member committee of the congregation
of our church, and if the funds are directed to a specific purpose,
then that purpose is carried out. Funds that are not designated
for any particular purpose are used for lasting items that enhance
our congregational life – such as hymnals, bibles, hearing enhancement
headsets, and other items that benefit those who attend our church
services. Memorial funds are not used for
general operational funding of the church organization.
Bequest Fund
Often,
congregational members leave bequests and/or portions of their
estate to the
Church. These
finds are invested for the long-term benefit of the organization,
if they have not been designated for a specific purpose. More
information on bequests and their management can obtained by
contacting the church.
