Garden Of Hope

On October 1, 2016, as part of our celebration of 20 years of ministry, M.E.N.D. dedicated the Garden of Hope as a place of peace and solace where families can come for a quiet time of reflection, prayer, or even to celebrate the life of their loved one. In the years since, the garden has been enjoyed by thousands of visitors.

The center of the garden is the Hope Monument by Beverly Paddleford, and it is surrounded by memorialized bricks, benches, and more that M.E.N.D. families from all over the nation have purchased to remember their loved ones.

You can remember your loved one by purchasing a brick or other element for the Garden of Hope.    

The Garden of Hope has Moved!

We welcome you to come visit the Garden of Hope at it’s new location at Fellowship Church in Grapevine TX. You will find it behind the church, on the SE side of the property.
