Ancient Symbols In Stone

After traveling to Bethel United Methodist I have seen several Gravestones that are remarkable. Men hundreds of years ago crafted Stones as you will see below by hand to tell a story of someones life. These are just a few of the beautiful markers at Bethel Untied Methodist.

This marker bears a wreath which is ancient Greek
and symbolizes victory or redemption.

This stone is draped with a cloth
which symbolizes grief and mourning .

This beautiful stone has flowers that I
believe to be lilies. This symbolizes
Majesty and the fragility of life.

This beautiful marker represents knowledge
and tells of a full life. 

Showing a wreath and a dove this stone
symbolizes purity and holiness along with
victory and redemption. 

This stone shows a lamb which is
a symbol of purity.

This stone holds a cross in a circle this
shows eternity and never ending
existence.

This angel symbolizes rebirth and
spirituality.

This gravestone holds a honeysuckle
which shows bonds of love and
generosity.

This stone shows a weeping willow
which represents sorrow and mourning .
