Blessing of the Urns

The last year has been difficult and emotional for all families, especially those who were not able to host a proper ceremony and grieve the loss of their loved one due to the pandemic. This is why, on Sunday, April 11, 2021, from 1-2pm, Pinelawn Memorial Park will be hosting a Blessing of the Urns event for families, and the community, who wish to honor the memory of their loved one and have their urns blessed in a small, meaningful ceremony alongside the new, peaceful Radiance Columbarium. Families will hear their loved one’s names read aloud and have the opportunity to have their cremated remains blessed.

This event takes place at Pinelawn’s new niche feature, Radiance Columbarium, with its soothing central fountain and Sierra White granite niche fronts and cylindrical benches that offer a beautiful setting for families to comfortably reflect on their loved ones among the Stewartia trees and calming sedge grass.

After the ceremony, guests will have the opportunity to ask questions about memorialization options for a loved one’s cremated remains and custom bronze niche memorials using photographs, as well as tour the tranquil Chapel of Radiance and nearby atriums.
