Catholic Cemeteries are part of the ministry of the Roman Catholic
Church. Through the church, the Body of Christ, we are touched with
mercy, love, grace and goodness from "the womb to the tomb."
Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, baptized with water, anointed
with oil, nourished with the Body and Blood of the Lord, touched with
healing and love. Christ himself shared not only our nature, but also
our very mortal bodies; therefore, we should always treat human beings
and their mortal remains with respect, dignity and honor.
In our Catholic Cemeteries, we carry out sacred religious functions
(Canon Law 1205), create a place of care and prayer, and express the
beauty of our relationship to God through graced environments that
feature beautiful landscapes and mausoleums, spiritual artwork and
sacred shrines. Here we can fulfill the Corporal Work of Mercy to "Bury
the dead" along with the Spiritual Works of Mercy to "Console the
sorrowing" and "Pray for the living and the dead."
- Our Catholic Cemeteries attest to the unity of the living and the dead - a sign of the "communion of saints" in our midst.
- Our Catholic Cemeteries express in words, deeds and objects our belief in the sacredness of human persons, living and dead - whether male or female, rich or poor, powerful or ordinary.
- Our Catholic Cemeteries provide a focus for the Christian community for prayerful remembrance of the dead.
- Our Catholic Cemeteries speak of life beyond life, life after death.
