One dedicated man with his wife created a prayer space outside the church walls, fashioning it according to a pattern found in a Carmelite monastery in Nice, France. On one wall is a mural of an opened door giving onto a meadow of flowers. Stone seats provide places for contemplation in shadow or sunlight. The entire garden and its contents were the work of Susan and Neil Haverley. Their daughter Erika created the mural.
Stone pathways intersect.
One leading from the Temple continues the route of processions, notably that of Paschal night. All bearing candles follow the clergy and choir to the driveway up and about the Temple. It symbolizes the blessed myrrh bearing women going to the tomb of Jesus. The wider walkway gives onto the Clough corridor, a passage connecting the Temple with the classrooms, library and dining hall. River stones serve as a splash way, taking runoff water to the drain.
