Milestone Moments

Baptism

We are blessed to participate in this holy sacrament of baptism with your family. We believe that by choosing to have your child baptized, you are being connected to the body of Christ, the larger church family of HPUMC. The baptismal covenant is connectional in nature, made in public, and witnessed by others who vow to support your family in nurturing the development of your child.

Weddings

HPUMC is honored to host many weddings each year.

Memorials and Funerals

A funeral or memorial service can present a bewildering array of details to be resolved in a short span of time. As we work with you to plan your loved one’s service, we will walk you through these details so you’ll know what the church will handle for you and what you need to handle yourself.

The Columbarium

Situated around the base of Cox Chapel and nestled amid stately trees and landscape, the Columbarium at Highland Park is a serene place for contemplation and celebration of the lives of loved ones.
