The Garden Guild cares for the beautiful grounds that surround St. Jude's. These gardens are cared for by dedicated members of the guild, many of whom live in the neighbourhood. The Guild meets mostly on Thursday mornings, or afternoons, according to the season, for the work of maintaining these beautiful gardens – keeping them colourful and cared for, and ever conscious of the changing seasons. Work sessions are followed with a time of fellowship, where the real friendship of fellow volunteers is enjoyed. The garden is a welcoming spot known by the community as a place of quiet and respite in the midst of our town.
The garden includes the lovely Chapel of the Gardens of the Bible.
The Memorial Garden is an enclosed garden area adjacent to the church and is operated as a cemetery available for the interment of ashes which are "sprinkled" directly into the earth. For more information about interment fees and arrangements please be in contact with the church office.
