About Us
Our mission at the Sacramento Memorial Garden is to glorify the Lord through a peaceful garden to honor and memorialize the lives of aborted, miscarried, and stillborn while offering a place of remembrance and solace for parents, loved ones, and the greater community.
Our purpose is to meet several needs:
- Honor the lives of the unborn
- Offer a place for reflection for those who are grieving, including extended family
- Foster hope, healing, and forgiveness
- Offer a site for individuals, small groups, ministries, and churches to hold memorial services
- Give various groups and individuals opportunities to donate, serve, and volunteer
Not only does our garden meet a physical need for remembrance, but we also offer a means of outreach to the general community by listing local, statewide, and national professional counseling, support groups, and after-abortion care information.
We welcome you to Sacramento Memorial Garden.
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. - Matthew 11:28
The Sacramento Memorial Garden is a sacred space. All are welcome to come and sit privately or gather quietly in a beautiful place for solace and peace.
The property contains a memorial wall where individualized engravings display the names of unborn children, honoring their brief lives and acknowledging the painful loss experienced by loved ones.
Floral landscaping and small benches are placed alongside meandering pathways leading to a cove containing private seating for one-on-one interaction, quiet reflection, and prayer. memorial services and prayer gatherings, often led by local pastors, are held under the covered space known as The Ramada.
Right in the middle is a big, beautiful cross. The cross is there for a reason. The goal is always to get to the cross. – Pastor Jeff Axtell, New Hope Christian Fellowship
