This stone denotes the resting place of a time capsule buried in the park across from the the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association on Pitman Avenue in the Grove. United Methodist Homes (UMH) might have been founded in Ocean Grove in 1907 and the capsule buried there as part of the organization's centennial celebrations, but with the sale of the Francis Asbury Manor in May, UMH no longer has facilities in the town, which is the historic district of Neptune Township. Its other Ocean Grove property, Manor by the Sea, on South Main Street (Route 71), was sold to Meridian Health in 2006. The Francis Asbury Manor, located on Stockton Avenue and with a view of Fletcher Lake, is now the Allegria at Ocean Grove, a senior residence owned by Sage Healthcare Partners, based in Cedarhurst, New York.
