Brainerd and Westminster Cemeteries - NEW

Funerals

Presbyterians believe that "resurrection is a central doctrine of the Christian faith and shapes Christians' attitudes and responses to the event of death. Death brings loss, sorrow, and grief to all. In the face of death Christians affirm with tears and joy the hope of the gospel. Christians do not bear bereavement in isolation but are sustained by the power of the Spirit and the community of faith. The church offers a ministry of love and hope to all who grieve." (PC (USA) Book of Order W-6.3006)

Please contact the church office  at 609-395-0897 to be put in touch with a pastor for assistance or pastoral care.

Cemetery Restoration

Restoration of Brainerd and Westminster Cemeteries started in 2003 when our church cemetery committee invited Johnathon Appell, one of the top restoration experts in the US, to visit and evaluate our cemeteries.  This evaluation was generously underwritten by the Cranbury Historical Society.  Restoration work has continued every year since.
