[:en]Many prominent American heroes were buried in Granary Burying ground. Among those gravestone found were John Hancock & Samuel Adams, two signers of the Declaration of Independence and just a few feet beyond was Paul Revere’s marker. But no one really know where each body was located because the stones have been moved many times – sometimes to make the ground more picturesque and other times so lawn mowers could fit between them. The Granary features approximately 2300 markers but closer to 5000 people are buried there! Even in death, it seems some people are not fully known.
There are times when you will feel as if you are like those unmarked residents of the Granary, unknown and unseen. But you are never forgotten by our Lord. Our creator makes you in His image and values you more than the birds of the air. You are precious is His sight. So even in your darkest hours, remember that God loves you and He is always with you.[:]
