Burying Grounds

All are welcomed to be put to rest on the Burying Ground at Little Fork. Our open door policy meets families where they need to be. The greatest gift we can offer is access to a beautiful and sacred place where loved ones can be buried and families can visit, sit under the cherry trees and feel at peace.

The Burying Ground is located next to the church, complemented by beautiful Cherry Blossom trees in the Spring and overlooking pastoral farmland. The Cherry Blossoms, paired with the view, are a gift to the church for comfort, relaxation, and reflection as you walk through the cemetery. This site has been sacred ground for centuries—the location chosen by generations as the final resting place for their loved ones.

Please contact the Church Administrator at [email protected] if you would like more information about reserving a plot.

Little Fork is a unique and sacred place of worship. If you find God in places of retreat, come worship off the beaten path surrounded by cherry trees. Come to this place to be known by God and known by others. Little Fork is a small intergenerational congregation and the worship reflects that. Children and adults worship together. Work boots and fancy shoes stand side by side to pray and celebrate life’s big moments.

We'd Like to Get to Know You

The Body of Christ exists to care for each other. Sometimes we can be generous, and sometimes we receive generosity. Both are equal acts of faith and grace, and one cannot exist without the other. We thank you for your faith, grace, and generosity.
