A Sanctuary for the Living
Our Catholic Cemeteries are an extension of your parish; a place for prayer, reflection, hope and remembrance. Cemeteries express our faith, reverence and respect for sacred burial on consecrated grounds.
A permanent place for remembering on consecrated ground, in a natural and inspirational environment.
" We are the heirs of a rich tradition in the Church, which has provided beautiful and powerful rites of passage for us as we commend to God those we love at their passing. What many of us cannot put into words is expressed so remarkably in our ceremonies and rituals. Our Catholic Cemeteries provide us with the added blessing of gathering on holy ground where the living meets the dead, crossing that mysterious divide between time and eternity. "
The Most Reverend Jaime Soto, Bishop of Sacramento
