Funeral for Robert H. Schuller Will Be Held at His Former Crystal Cathedral

The Rev. Robert H. Schuller's funeral plans have been announced. The founder of "Hour of Power" will have his farewell services at the Crystal Cathedral the very iconic sanctuary that his ministry created. While it's now under the ownership of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange and named Christ Cathedral, the large southern California church building will be used for the famous televangelist's funeral.
Carol Schuller-Milner, daughter of the former "Hour of Power" host and head of Crystal Cathedral Ministries, announced the details last weekend.
"A funeral service for Crystal Cathedral founder Robert H. Schuller has been scheduled for 10 a.m. April 20 at the Christ Cathedral in Garden Grove," noted the Orange County Register. "The closed casket memorial will end with a procession into the Memorial Gardens where Schuller will be buried next to his wife, Arvella, who died a little over a year ago."
Schuller is a Christian televangelist, pastor, motivational speaker, and author. He was principally known for the weekly Hour of Power television program, which he founded in 1970 and hosted until 2010, where he began his broadcasting services, from the Neutra Sanctuary, with the encouragement of his lifelong best friend, Billy Graham.
His first meeting was at a California church in 1955, when he preached from the roof of the drive-in theater's refreshment stand, where approximately 75 motorists and their families showed up to listen. He was also the founder of the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, California, where the Hour of Power program was previously broadcast
